2016 Toyota Prius Owner Comments

problem #5

Jul 242017

Prius Four 1.8L 4-cyl

  • CVT transmission
  • 10,500 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

The head unit shuts down (most of the time, but not always) when Siri is engaged by saying 'Hey Siri' (at all, for any reason) or phone is engaged in talk-to-text mode. A green microphone typically appears on the head unit when the voice command prompt through phone feature is accessed either via the phone screen itself or verbally requesting Siri. The head unit then goes black and performs a full reboot which takes approximately 1--15 seconds.

I've tried the following: Unpairing, re-pairing phone Deleting phone from car memory and setting up again Turning off phone, turning phone on again, re-pairing Having software updated at the dealership (at one point, Toyota admitted this was a "known issue.")

At this point in time, I cannot reliably utilize Siri in my vehicle, and currently have no reliable hands free mechanism to communicate with my phone if necessary.

problem #1

May 202016

Prius 3

  • Automatic transmission
  • 13 miles

Radio no longer reads texts as the previous Prius 2 did, navigation software missing components.

Update from Jul 18, 2016: Text issue fixed by deleting phone from car and car from phone then pairing with advanced features for bluetooth on phone

Navigation menus still erratic. Some options are ghosted sometimes. Will not be able to get it fixed until problem becomes permanent.
