Nagging Issue: Bluetooth calls

[kyChevrolet]

My truck is doing well, but I am getting annoyed by a few issues that seem to revolve around the bluetooth.

 

1. One of the annoying issues I am is when someone calls me through Bluetooth. For setup purposes, I like to see the digital speedometer. When I receive a call, the caller's information shows up on the little screen in the odometer/speedometer area and the large MyLink screen. After you answer the call, the speedometer shows a blank screen. You have to go into the menu, click on "Info" to bring the speedometer back up. It doesn't do this when you place a call (it immediately goes back to the speedometer); only when you receive a call. Is anybody else experiencing this issue?

 

2. The second issue is that if you are listening to the radio (and you are on the radio screen) and somebody calls you. After the call, the screen stays on the phone page and does not return to the radio page.

 

3. The third issue is the length of time it takes for my phone "sync" up to my truck so I can make a call. When I enter the truck, the phone connects to my truck really fast (less than 15 seconds), but if I press the call button on my steering wheel, I get this dreaded, "A device is initializing, content on that device is not available by speech command." It seems to take about 2 minutes before I can use the phone. Now I know that this may seem like a short period of time, but I used to have a 2013 Chevy Camaro and it had the mylink. Whenever you entered the vehicle, and the Bluetooth light showed that the phone was connected, you could immediately make a call. Same company, I wonder why the systems do not work the same.

I have experienced both 1 and 2. My truck is in the shop today and this is one of the issues they are looking at. There is a calibration for "blank screen" that also has fixes for these 2 issues. I am told it also addresses slow response. In any event, talk to your dealer about these issues and refer to the "calibration". This is what my dealer service manager called the software update.

Same here on #1

I noticed #2 only happens if i end the call myself.

 

If you let the caller hang up and wait a few secconds it will go back. But yes, even if i end the call i shouldnt have to hit my home button and go back to the radio manually.
