Default Uconnect and iPhone 6s

I just purchased a new IPhone 6s and I can't get it to hookup to my uconnect 130 radio in my 2015 Jeep Wrangler. I've tried repeatedly and the radio doesn't appear on my phones list of Bluetooth devices. The radio will ask for a PIN number then immediately says pairing failed. Don't know if anyone else has had this problem or a solution.

Thanks

Tagging along on this. Have the iPhone 6+ and have the identical problem. Dealership tried and no luck either. I'm sure it has something to do with the phone.

ever since I update to the last version of iOS 8 I started having issues with my Jeep and my Fiat no longer streaming song titles over Bluetooth. when I updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 9 I lost the ability to stream Music altogether and the phone only works for outbound calls but not inbound.

iOS 9 made the phone work flawlessly now with the Apple Airplay feature in my Smart car.. and the integration to the MyLink in my '15 Silverado has been enhanced with better sound quality and the ability to Voice a Text message reply when I receive one...

Hopefully Jeep updates to the 8" Uconnect in 2017 and gives it some Love.. the current U-connect system used on the 130-series radios is QUITE old...

I have a 2015 Rubi and an iPhone 6s. My uconnect said pairing failed but the reality was it didn't. It works fine. When trying to play music over Bluetooth make sure to hit the BT button on uconnect. Calls are connecting automatically.

I made a call into Chrysler Uconnect service and they walked me through it and it's working perfectly with my 6s plus. So if you're having trouble call 1 (877) 855-8400
