Re the above suggestions, I have just tried turning the volume down on the Audio and although Siri will relate the incoming message, as soon as I agree to a reply, it reverts back to type, which is, "What do you wa...." over and over again, until it seems to get fed up with that and then starts an entire conversation with itself...... .....back to the drawing board sadly......

Thanks for keeping us updated. My problem hasn't been resolved and I am sick of them saying "its an Apple " issue. No- it isn't- because my previous car, which wasn't a Lexus, WhatsApp worked absolutely fine. At least your technicians are trying to do something about it. My local dealership is useless - I think I understand more about the problem than they do. Also I am not sure what they are saying about the pre-August software malarky as I have had my car two years and WhatsApp has never worked properly, becoming even worse when I upgraded my phone. I have wasted countless hours trying to get WhatsApp to working the car and still not much further on. I have found, however, by my own deliberations, if I ignore Siri when I see I have a WhatsApp message and just press "receive messages" on my screen Siri will actually have a stab and telling me what they are, but if I try to reply, it is a complete waste of time. I shall await your further news with interest.

To be fair I was having slight issues with my iPhone 8 too, and Lexus Service said it was because I had an old phone. So I upgraded to an Iphone 15 and the problem is much, much worse. WhatsApp doesn't work at all, it will ask me if I want to send a message and then seems to ignore me, listens to itself saying "what do you want to say" and then sends that as a message. This is so frustrating, that unless Lexus get this fixed I will not be renewing this vehicle when the time comes.

I am still having issues after two years. Apple Car Play is really flaky to say the least and WhatsApp is completely uselessHas anybody managed to get the problem fixed?
