Sirius Weather - Gone!

All of a sudden, I can't get Sirius weather although I get traffic and sat radio.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Instead of the weather, I get a message saying to call Sirius. Sirius is clueless and seems to think I never had Weather.

This happened to me TWICE. I bought the car, the Sirius Weather wasn't working. On day 2 of ownership, I called Sirius. After calling them for over an hour and a half, they said my car only had radio and traffic. MULTIPLE PHONE CALLS LATER...nothing. Took it to the dealership and had them talk to Sirius for over 3 HOURS. When I got the car back, it worked for a week or so. It stopped working out of the blue again. Hours of phone calls later, nothing. Again. They said I never had Sirius Weather. I took it to the dealer and they said it should be working. The ESN did include weather on my car, so the dealer tried fixing it. Sirius told the dealer that Sirius would resend the new signal a week later. I was skeptical at first, but in 3 days, the weather started working again.

TRUST ME! I know how you feel. I almost ripped my brain out when Sirius repeatedly told me I never had weather, when I did. Check out my previous thread. You'll see what I mean.

The only solution is to not waste your own time. Have the dealer bear the brunt of talking to Sirius. They'll get it for you. If not, call MBUSA. They'll have the dealer do it for you.

Sorry (and glad in a way) to hear you had the same issue.

Now that I've seen your post, I'll bypass the entire process and let the manager of telematics at MBUSA have fun with it.

That's the way to fix it haha
Good luck! I'm hoping that tomorrow morning when I go out to my car, the Sirius still works...

when my trial ended, I signed up for radio only for $103 including taxes and some other garbage costs. If I wanted to keep Sirius or traffic, it would have cost me twice as much. Not worth it......I get weather on my iphone just fine for free.
