iOS 10 Bluetooth Calling Infiniti G37

Hi


Since upgrading to the AT&T iPhone 7 (unwillingly - long story) with iOS 10, I have the unfortunate experience that Bluetooth is unusable for calling in my 2013 Infiniti G37.


Previously, accepting a call from the iPhone 6 resulted in the microphone being routed improperly, but accepting a call from the car's phone controls worked - audio and microphone routed correctly through the car's handsfree system.


On the iPhone 7, no matter which way you dial or accept a call in the car, the audio and microphone inputs always go through the phone. This is even though the phone indicates, incorrectly, that the audio is being routed through bluetooth.


This is a dangerous situation because you have to take your eyes off the road to try to correct it by switching the audio to the iPhone speaker or the iPhone handset, then switch it back to bluetooth in order for the audio to work correctly. Not good while driving.


It seems like Apple or its suppliers needs to issue new firmware or software updates to make this work correctly, asap.

I made the firmware update for my car because it did not cost anything and how I wrote before It took 10 minutes(not 1 hour). But this Bluetooth issue is an IOS problem not the car fault. Under the iOS 9 the iPhone 6s was working with my Infiniti without any problems. Apple and anybody can say anything. They screwed up with iOS 10 and they made it worse with iOS 10.2. This is the way of the business.
