The RAM 1500 navigation system provides turn-by-turn directions, route guidance, and location search. Map data must be updated periodically to reflect new roads, highways, and address changes.
Keeping maps updated ensures accurate routing, better travel planning, and reliable navigation performance. Outdated maps may display missing roads or incorrect directions.
On the vehicle screen, open Settings → System Information and review the installed map version to determine whether an update is available.
Map updates are typically installed using a compatible USB drive or supported wireless connection depending on the vehicle model and system configuration. The update process should not be interrupted once started.
Some users may experience slow installation, update detection issues, or compatibility messages. These are often resolved by verifying the correct map version and restarting the system.
Navigation maps are typically updated once or twice per year. Checking for updates regularly helps maintain accurate route guidance.
