Sending messages using Apple Carplay


Recommended Posts

Is anyone having problems sending messages in apple Carplay? Newer versions of Apples IOS seem to have changed the way Siri works and it doesn't seem to interact well with the LBX. Instead of saying back the message you have said it has a fit and sometimes says "I cannot show you that while you are in the car" which is a bit counterproductive.

I have only had my LBX for about 4 weeks but I am having this problem on apple car play. It will read messages, but when you ask Siri to reply, you dictate your reply but the Siri just goes silent, then just says "it says.... it says..." on a loop until you just have to turn it off. I have also had "I cant show you that as you are in the car".  I have tried restarting my phone, even updated the phone to the new iOS but it hasn't made a difference.  I'm having various problems with the Lexus Link + app not functioning properly so I guess it's some kind of software problem? I've called the dealer and it's booked in for the 30th to have a look at it.  Its really annoying and and spoiling my experience so far, everything worked fine on my previous Mercedes GLC so im pretty sure its the car and not my phone 😵‍💫

The Lexus Link+ App is basically a waste of time for me, nothing really works, it hardly ever connects to the car, if I try and open the car it says I cant because it was locked with a key! The brochure said I can start the heated seats and steering wheel but there is no option on my app, only to set a temp, which most of the time doesn't work as it says it cant connect to the car. So seems pointless.  It also said I could unlock the car with my phone but there is not even an option in my app. I sent a message via the app feedback but haven't had a reply, and like I said is going to the dealer on 30th so hopefully they can resolve it? It's definitely putting me off Lexus and ruining what was supposed to be an exciting purchase. I have not had these problems with other "premium" cars.
