iPhone 5 and Sync
I did a bunch of research on this and it seems that the iPhone Bluetooth screen is dynamic and reconfigures itself based on the BT connection. If you aren't seeing the "Show Notifications" option (in the truck with phone paired; iPhone, settings, Bluetooth, touch blue arrow to right of "Sync", this is the Sync BT profile), you may need to re-pair your phone. You want to force a completely new connection. I found these steps on another forum and fixed them up a little to help make them clearer and less ambiguous. The hardest part for me, when I was doing this was trying to figure out what to do on the phone and what to do on the truck.
Hope this helps!
1) Truck - Delete phone from BT device list.
2) Phone - Delete Sync from BT connection list.
3) Phone - Reboot. (Do steps 4 & 5 while you wait for this to finish)
4) Truck - Turn off, pull the key, open the door.
5) Truck - Close the door, restart.
6) Truck/Phone - Pair your phone fresh w/MFT. Let it finish.
7) Phone - Turn BT off.
8) Phone - Turn BT on.
9) Truck - Hit "connect" on the MFT screen to reconnect BT.
10) Phone - Go into the BT Profile Settings screen for Sync (little arrow to the right of Sync, in Settings, Bluetooth)
11) Phone - Set Notifications to "On".

Message notifications must be ON in the sync phone menu.
