    So I am driving home from the ranch Monday night, I was on the phone and I hear a pop radio goes black and reboots but now there is no phone connectivity. Take it in to the dealer today and they told me they had to order a new radio. Now 5 days of no hands free calling.

    I'd be peeved too in a new vehicle having issues (not so much just over hands free).

    Correct, it is all perspective.

    Keep us posted...my T4R HU does an occasional reboot and can be funky sometimes.

    Man that sucks. You at least have radio, right? I would go nuts without Taylor Swift singing to me.

    Our thoughts and prayers go out to you in these dark times.









    Can you hear me now?

    That happened to me and now my personal phone (iPhone 6) connects but is very spotty, like listening to music through Bluetooth sucks on it. But my workphone(also an iPhone 6) is completely fine connecting. I'm just glad I can connect to phones, one for audio and one for calls.

    Yea the radio still plays XM thank god for that! I didn't even think of trying it through the aux input. I will try tomorrow, it is really odd that they are having issues with the radio I'm just glad I haven't had any aftermarket amps connected they would of blamed the installer for the issue!
