Do you not have Bluetooth in the truck?

The nerds at my dealership told me not to plug the phone directly to the USB port. They said to only use thumb drives in the USB port because anything with an OS (phone, tablet, iPod, basically anything with a screen) can cause complications in the software.

If no Bluetooth, I would use the aux input jack from the phone's headphone jack instead of the USB port.

To answer your question, yes if you are using the phone over BT.

You can listen to pandora or your music on phone and directions will said over speakers.
