Speed dial

Does anyone know if the speed dial feature works. I've read and reread the manual and apparently am missing something. Any thoughts appreciated.

The voice recognition in our 2015 just makes too many mistakes for my taste. I get the best results talking to my phone. It's actually pretty good, except for Hispanic names.

I agree but the manual specifically states you can program speed dial numbers. Question is how? ?

IDK. Sorry. I just find the phone easy to use, and have not looked into getting the truck to do any phone-related stuff.

When I synched up my phone it has all the contacts available via voice command.

Works well.

How did you match your phone up?

Press the phone button on the steering wheel. Say call Mom (or whoever) you want to call.

I'm already doing that but the way I read the manual it refers to assigning numbers to a speed dial list. Am I missing something here?

The owner's manual is the last resort for me.

I guess I don't understand the need for it....
The few occasions I have used speed dial, I just pick up the phone and press the button there.

Other than that, its voice command.

Well I'm one of those guys that's always looking for features and how they may help you. I also use the voice commands but my phone is locked while driving.

Mine is locked too, but it still takes commands from me. I have it trained on my voice.
