WhenI am in the truck (2021 Laramie 1500 12" display) and use the voice button for directions, siri comes on and opens Iphone map on Iphone. Would like the
truck navigation to come on instead. Ideas?

Bskubon is correct in that you’re holding the voice button too long. I think in the end you'll get frustrated trying to get the truck nav to get your destination correct that you’ll end up using your phone maps instead.

For sure... just tried the built-in Uconnect Nav in my truck... took me in a completely opposite direction than my iphone maps app. What's up with that ? 🤷‍♂️

If you’re new to the world of Uconnect; welcome to a world of disappointment when it comes to voice recognition. It’s a painful voice system. I’m hoping as most are I imagine, that the new version 5 coming out soon will be worlds better. Typing in your destination is far easier and less frustrating or better yet just use car play/android auto. You’ll be much happier in the long run.

Another downside with Uconnect nav, the maps are most likely from 2015-17 at best. Don’t expect updates either without pulling the wallet out If they ever come available.

Congrats on your new rebel also.
