car bluetooth problems with iOS 9 update

You got a response from Apple? They told me it was the GM radio software.

Dont think it was a GM problem cause it did work at one time not long ago. Only response I got from Apply was that they deleted my post cause I told more than they want to say right now, BUT bottom line is it'll be all better real soon.

This may or may not be helpful. I am not experiencing the problem in my MB'15 GLA45 AMG since the update to 9.2. However, for the 3 months I did experience the issue. After calling Apple more than once, I finally was transferred to a "senior supervisory tech." She had a direct line to Apple's iOS software design team. I was emailed a detailed questionnaire, asking for the Mercedes info, radio model, software revision #, etc. It was quite lengthy and detailed and I had to call MBUSA to gather some of the info.

I am wondering if Apple has done this for any of you with GM vehicles? If they have not, on your next call, you might want to reference this post.

I am having this exact same problem with my 2014 Kia Sorento. I have had it to the dealership twice. It has been determined that it is an iPhone issue and not my Kia. Did you get your issue resolved? If so, how? Thanks!!

I have had this exact problem too. GMC 2015 Sierra, bluetooth works fine but once the phone call, speak to text are done, it plays music off either Pandora on my phone (which has been eating up my data...thanks apple) or my music. this needs to be addressed. It is very distracting while driving having to constantly change back to satellite radio. APPLE, PLEASE FIX THIS!

afaik apple changed bluetooth protocol to a very new version that many older devices do not support.

unless your non apple device can do a firmware update to the newer protocol, chances are it will never get back to normal.

Having the same problem with my cadillac SRX. Any fix yet?

Exactly same problem with my 2015 GMC sierra since the 9.2 update, I have talked to 4 senior advisers ,most resent January 29 their respond was that their engineering department r still working on the problem the 9.2.1 is not a fix yet

Have a 2015 Chevy 2500HD Silverado without the touch screen controls, but do have MyLink, OnStar and SiriusXM. Ever since 9.2 been having the issue of after any phone call the audio will revert to music on phone instead of the radio channel previously tuned prior to phone call. The update 9.2.1 did not improve the situation. Today, disabled Siri and all works as before 9.2. Made several calls and the audio always reverted to XM channel. I don't use Siri so disabling is not an issue.

I've got a 2010 F-150 with Sync and never had a problem with calls disconnecting until this last iOS. Now, as soon as I connect a call, the phone disconnects the bluetooth link. So much for Apple software QC! It's time to change leadership, Apple.

I work for a Chevrolet dealer and all of us plus our customers were struggling with this. Following your advice mattjames11 I got the public beta ios 9.3, and that fixed the issue whether I had Siri turned on or not. Hopefully Apple uses this to fix further issues.

THANK YOU!

Everyone the fix for this is coming in the next iOS version very soon!!

Glad that the update worked for you!!! 9.3 beta 2 was a big improvement but there are still some connectivity issues. As well as an issue with the battery life, everytime my phone gets to 20% battery it dies. So there are still some flaws that they need to workout before the final release!

I Have 9.3 and drive a 15 Traverse. It did not help still changes the source wgen opening Facebook ect. I will try to turn off siri tomorrow.

Just updated to iOS 9.2.1 and now have the same issue with by Lexus entertainment system. Have to reboot phone to get to play, but playlists don't reliably show up. Was using iOS 7.3 which was rock solid. Wished I hadn't upgraded now!
