JRV215NR Replacement

For those who have replaced their older Jensen JRV212T with the Jensen JRV215NR, is this radio still in production and if so where can I purchase one. My 212T has died over the weekend and I would like to upgrade this model to something newer

Sara

The 215 is discontinued as well - though you might still find one...
JRV9000 appears to be replacement:

ASA supplied 212T

How old was your original 212T that ASA Jensen sent a replacement free of charge. I have a 2014 Thor ACE and my 212T just went out this weekend

Jensen JRV212T dead radio

I did give a call to Jensen and they are going to exchange my dead radio for a repaired JRV212T, all I have to do is pay postage.
Thanks so much for your post regarding this

Sara

Can you post the phone number that you used to contact Jensen? I have the same problem.

Thanks

The number Sara posted is the same I used - listed as 'technical assistance' on their website. Also had a 2014 - last winter - and they confirmed my diagnosis that it needed replacement - but didn't cover the replacement...
I didn't push hard because I have an extended service plan - and already had other work to be done - so it didn't cost me anything for the claim thru them.

There is also a 'customer service' number on their website: 877-305-0445

It is definitely an issue with this radio not liking the repeated removal and application of power thru the use/store switch. Hopefully they have recognized that and changed their position since last winter and will replace yours as well! Good luck!!

I contacted ASA and asked if I could return our JRV212T to them for a replacement. They sent me instructions and a return number and I sent the unit to them. They found the radio to be defective and sent a new or a refurbished unit back to me. I installed the new radio and it works fine. The display appears to be brighter than the old unit and the sound and reception also seem to be better. Fingers crossed...

Yes Same here on my 212T radio. I thought I imagined that it sounded better as well. I had just replaced the 2 front speakers prior to installing the replacement radio

Oh by the way after I got my radio back I called Jensen to thank them for their great service. I was told that whatever enhancements there are for the 212T would be incorporated at time of repairs
