I’m looking for a definitive answer, not speculation. I’m also inquiring about all software updates, not the subwoofer package.
I see a lot of people posting here in the forums that they “went to the dealer to have the latest update installed.” Are people really paying $50 for the dealer to do these updates? I’ve seen other people state that the dealer does the updates as a warranty claim. I can’t get a straight answer.

@BrandonSmith Give your local/ preferred dealer a call and ask. Then you'll have the definitive answer for your situation. If your local/ preferred dealer says they charge for updates, then call around to a few more dealers and ask them, then you should have a pretty reasonable idea if updates are free or not.
My situation is my dealer does them for free.
