Sync refuses to recognize the word "home"...suggestions?
This seemed to happen all at once about three weeks ago. Sync recognizes all my other voice commands......phone, dial, all of the numbers etc.
However, when I direct it to "call home", sync either boots me back to the main menu like she's heard nothing, comes up with the four choices from the phone book (none of which are "home"), or connects me to to a number that is not even close.
Last night, sync connected me to "calling payment" after I asked her to "call home."....what's up with THAT?
I wonder if I uninstall then re-install my phone and phone book if this might improve. Suggestions (other than crawling into the dash and smacking her) to correct this would be appreciated.

One workaround would be to rename your home phone number in your address book to "my house". Then you would say "call my house". Sometimes working around the issue is easier than solving it.

Did you see if there is an update?
Mine required an update to fix a lot of the features.

I will try to remember to ask during the next oil change............in the meantime, I've changed the name on the phone number to "the house"....we'll see if that helps..............I am still wondering why the word "home" so suddenly confused sync.............

You, and me both nickel. Maybe a "Southern Edition" of an F-150 with a good old southern girl as a SYNC lady.
Cappy, I feel your pain. Me with a southern accent has to try speaking like a yankee at times to get that woman to understand. I wonder at times if her, and the dear Wifey are of the same cloth.
