text messages on screen

Wondering if I could get some help here. Just bought a new F250.
When I paired my phone up at the dealer, text messages would appear on the screen when they came in.
This worked for a couple of weeks. Now for the last week and a half, they aren't coming through.
And when I go to the text message screen and hit Refresh, is doesn't refresh with the new texts on my phone.
But it does seem to still load as I find texted from the day before on it.

I have rebooted my phone. deleted the blutooth pairing and re synced it a few times. Couldn't find anything in the manual for trouble shooting.

Does anyone know how to fix the problem? I would like the text messages to appear on the screen again.

Thanks
Red

On mine, which is the norm I believe, you only see the text when you are stopped. While moving your only option is to listen to the text as in "listen to message one".

Yeah mine did the same to, while driving you can't read it. My issue is the text messages aren't even popping up on the screen now.
