Default 2011 iPod controls?

Is anyone else having problems with their iPod controls? My USB port in the center console is not working at all now.

Yes it worked fine for the first month or two then it started taking a few minutes to connect. Now it won't connect at all through the console it will charge through the USB on the face of the radio though. I will try the Bluetooth when I get off work and see if it still works. I had my wife take it to the dealer last week and they said apple and chrysler are working on patch.

just to clarify, my bluetooth phone options work perfect except for streaming music through bluetooth and sms messaging

Yeah mine is a 2011. The Bluetooth was working for streaming music the sound quality sucked that way. I haven't tried Bluetooth lately but I will.

I was able to get my iPhone to work with my 2011 Wrangler via the USB cable. Had to downgrade the phone's OS to the 3.2.x software instead of 4.2.x

Google it, there are discussions on other websites about Jeep/Chrysler radios and iPod/Phone connection problems.
