Have a new Jeep, can I text via uConnect and iPhone 5?

I have new Jeep with uConnect activated. I have no problem with Bluetooth and phone in the vehicle.

I have turned SMS on, as instructed, and am still unable to text via voice.

Can you help?

iMac, iOS 5.0.1

If you check the post that I made above, that link shows the iPhone's Bluetooth profiles. The iPhone does support voice texting, however if you also do a search of the forum you will find a number of posters talking about issues with uconnect. You will also find most state that it is an issue with the uconnect software. Different Chrysler dealers will say different things. You may find a solution in one of the other threads.

Thank you for your reply. i did read everything I could find regarding the issue before posting. I did want to make sure it was not a simple fix. I am able to do everything else, make and receive calls, play music, and receive texts but it is not compatible with sending a voice text or replying to one. All other operating systems such as android and windows do work. Apple simply does not. I went through this same blame game with Mitsubishi. Mitsubishi blaming Apple, Apple blaming Mitsubishi. Bottom line, apple doesn't work when others do.

Let me make sure that I am understanding you correctly. You are trying to send a voice recording, as opposed to just dictating a text? Is that correct? I guess I might have misunderstood you at the beginning. I thought you were referring to dictating and sending a text. You may be right that it is something about the iPhone, since the ability to create a voice memo, or recording of your voice is a separate operation, although you can send that like an MMS, where you attach something to a text, but that is complicated for doing while in a motor vehicle. Sorry if I misunderstood you.
