Hello all, happy to be a new Model Y owner after an 8 month wait! We generally love the car, very comfortable, great power, smooth and quiet, handles well as an SUV, and...no gas!
One complaint involves making outbound calls easily. We have iphones. If I press the steering wheel button and say "call (first and last name) mobile", it will almost never call directly.
First, it is incapable of getting my last name right, although it is not complicated. Then it always has a list of options on the screeen. Sometimes the correct person is not visible, so I have to take my eyes off the traffic, scroll down to the appropriate name, and press that to make the call. This is not convenient and likely unsafe!
The other alternative is to use my iphone with Siri voice commands. That works better as Siri understands the names better and usually dials with one command. But I'm afraid with the phone set under the dash on the charging pad, I could potentially exit the car, leaving it there, and have my phone and the car easily stolen.
How do you all handle this? Is there an easier way?
