    IPhone 6 and messages work fine in that they pop up and I have the option to play the message but not read it while the truck is in motion.

    It will not display the actual text message on the screen while you are in motion, only read it to you. It's a safety feature. If you stop at a light, the message will be viewable.

    That does not resolve the issue; it is a way around it. Siri works just fine this way, but I paid for all of the Entune junk and want to get it to work properly.

    To me, this is like addressing that my 4x4 on my OR model won't work, by telling me to not go off road.

    Maybe if you want trouble free phone functionality in your truck, you might consider switching phones.....

    Or be happy to continue to post about your struggles

    So I should respond to EVERY issue you ever post with "Get rid of it and try a new (car, truck, TV, phone, whatever)? Contribute useful info or stay out of the thread.

    Ok, here's something useful, take your phone to a dealership and see if it pairs and operates with another truck. If it does, make them fix yours under warranty , if not and you still need to drive, text and talk on the phone while driving, try a different phone.

    End of thread and you're welcome

    And ignored. No time for kids when discussing adult issues.

    My thanks to the other members in the thread attempting to actually solve the issue and contribute.

    Adults consider all options, children get mad and ignore things they don't like to hear.

    It's either the phone or the truck so pick one and swap it out, it's not that difficult especially at a dealership which has many trucks and technical expertize. Theyre also obligated to fix for free due to the warranty if deemed your truck is broken.

    Since I'm being ignored, maybe someone not ignored will quote this for you.

    The adult is finished now, continue with your hissy fit.
