Voice commands

Does anyone find the voice commands on the factory navigation very frustrating? It is literally useless. It doesn't matter if you slow down while talking, speak as clear as possible, try different people, raise voice/lower voice, talk like a robot, etc. Nothing works, it always comes up with some off the wall address that sounds nothing like what I or my wife said. I can get in my Dad's Silverado and use the voice commands with no issues. Its mainly frustrating since you can't manually enter info in while the truck is moving, forcing you to use the voice commands.

Didn't some of the radios have a voice learning selection in the settings? Or maybe the microphone is bad?

i have no problem on my 2015 using voice commands.

Good to know, when I get my dash put back together today, I'll search for such a setting. I would love for it to work better

Only on a few request, but overall, I've not really had a problem on either my 15' or my 16' Super Duty's with factory Nav.
