This update applies to MyLink equipped cars only.
The list of fixes sounds amazing though it is mostly related to navigation, bluetooth and rear camera which we didn't experience a lot of bugs with. Bluetooth fixes make up a lot of the changes also but I only use the phone Bluetooth (not music) and never had much trouble with it before. Unfortunately, in 1 driving filled weekend, the quirks with playing music from the iPhone haven't gotten much better.
My dealer wouldn't do this update for free but the token charge (1/4 hour of labor?) was way less than the effort and time to install this huge update. Has anybody else had this update applied to their Cruze yet? The same update is available for many 2014-2016 GM car based vehicles with MyLink.
Before the update:
Playing music with shuffle often resulted in clipping the last few seconds of the last song off
After:
It sometimes plays the first few seconds of another song then pauses for 5-10 seconds before starting again
Before the update:
Lots of possibilities but as an example... Choosing an artist, all albums then starting some song and shuffling resulted in a shuffle of all songs by that artist (as expected) until the car is turned off then on at which point it would go to shuffling the songs on whatever album that the last song playing before the power down was from.
After:
Same and it seems to not even shuffle the whole list of songs and repeats a few songs a lot. Definitely worse.
Before the update:
Volume adjustments were sometimes slow to respond and sometimes happened many seconds after turning volume knob or tapping steering buttons
After:
Seems to have reduced the lag when this happens but it still occurs
Lastly, I feel like the rear camera comes on faster when going into reverse but that could be my imagination.
