Default Problem with UConnect 730N

I have loaded the hard drive on my 730N with about 20 GB of music (.mp3). On a few songs the last few seconds will be skipped - the song ends abruptly which is really annoying. I took my JK to the dealer but they said the song did the same thing on the other 730Ns they tested so "it must be the song". Obviously there is a bug in the 730N software which needs to be fixed. I realize that Chrysler (or any manufacturer) is inundated with bugs in their software, and I also realize the 730N isn't the most popular sound system for Chrysler products, so it may be awhile before Chrysler updates the 730N software. I would like to hear from anyone else who has experienced this and more importantly I'd like to hear from those who found a resolution. What I did was record a few extra seconds to the end of the song and this solved the problem, but I'm hoping there's a better way.

If true, then there's a much more serious problem with the U-Connect...

Seconded. Strangely, it seems that only some songs do this. And I've also had the same song get cut off at the end, then not get cut off. It's definitely a bug in the system. Glad to know that it's not only my system...
