Making phone calls; "Call John Smith.." Probably use it for this 95% of the time, and probably 5-8x a week.I find that I never use voice control but feel like I should.
What do you use it for? What commands work best?

you could reach for the touch screen while the car did the driving for you. Mistake.
I wish voice control would work with Siri. Ability to ask questions etc would be super helpful.
Didn't know that. Will give it a try. Thanks!If you have an iPhone paired up via Bluetooth to the car and also have "Hey Siri" enabled, you should be able to say/shout out "Hey Siri" at any time and then speak a command to the phone, all without touching the phone or looking away. However, it doesn't always work for me, and because I'm listening to music that's a bit loud sometimes, shouting out the words Hey Siri isn't so fun. Instead, I'll just reach down to my phone on the floor of the center console and just hold the Home button down for about 2 seconds. That will always activate Siri, and then I just say the commands. Even that isn't foolproof all of the time, and sometimes it still takes a few tries to get a music selection right, but more often than not it does work.
All that just to say that somebody should really be working on improving voice control!
100% real exchange between me and my S:
"Play Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia"
"Pen discourse at the Bellagio"
Uhh... Not exactly what I had in mind, but I can see how you made that mistake...
My problem is I can't get my car to recognize my own last name (to call my wife at home). Have no accent or drawl. But my last name is Sandhaus:
"Call Dot Sandhaus"
Call Santa? Not found.
CALL. . . DOT . . . SAND. . . HOUSE!
Call Doctor Santa? Not found.
Oh well
