Default clock always behind...

Have a 2012 JKU and the clock on the stereo always falls behind. I can set it to the correct time and a week later it's 8-10 min behind. It's done this since I bought the jeep.

Anyway, not a big problem but it irritates the crap outta me.

Anyone else have this problem?

My 2008 lost about a minute per week. I haven't been paying attention the the 2014, but it's only a month old.

My 2011 loses about a minute every day or two... I was told its a Jeep Thing, so I just adjust it once in a while.

My 2012 JKU has the same issue. Thought about getting the navi radio to see if that helps.

My 07 with 6 disc did it
And my 12 does it as well.
Set it 10 min ahead and you will be good for a month. Lol

Mine used to lose about 2 minutes a month. Now it doesn't....don't know for sure why it got better.
I suspect it's related to an update it received when I brought it in for the transmission temp warning recall.

I have a 2012 Sahara Unlimited which used to lose 2-3 min a month. When I asked at the dealer if there was an update available to fix this issue, they said no, but they did admit that this is a known issue and that they would replace the wireless module. No issues now that they've replaced it.

I think it may have to do with the clockspring.
