Vehicle health report
Just came back from Indy today and on the way home with the radio completely off a womans voice came through the speakers and wanted to know if i wanted a vehicle health report and if so to push ok. It did this twice before i got home. My wife started laughing and asked what was that and thought i hit some button to do that but i didn't. I also didn't push ok to get report either. Does it do this every so often, i have never had that happen before?

It is because you have your phone connected, It does it after a set amount of time to remind you. You can turn off the automatic VHR under the phone settings. I am not sure if this is of any value but I run it every once and a while.

My phone is not yet paired with my truck either.
It is interesting though, she only calls when I am alone. Never when my wife is in the truck with me.

IT does it whether or not your phone is hooked up. It is set from the factory to go off every 5000mi,and it will keep going off no matter if you hit yes or no. You need to go into your phone section and turn it off or you can set it to remind you at 5000,7500 0r 10,000 mi. It drove me crazy until I turned it off.

I wish there was more vehicle specific information in the report. Its mostly just a reminder of what the pending maintenance schedule is. I wanted something more like an OnStar report with tire pressure, engine temp, oil life remaining, battery voltage, etc. Just things that I wouldn't normally have access to since my truck doesn't have the computer to show actual tire pressure, etc.
