Bluetooth voice "dialing failed" after 4.3

[FrogFan]

Hello,

I'm having the same problem reported here with Bluetooth voice dialing over Intellilink in my 2013 Buick. When I use the voice command system to "call Bob", I get the usual response, "calling Bob on cell", followed quickly by "dialing failed". When I access the phone book directly, scroll through it to find Bob's number and select it, it dials Bob's number. The system worked fine until 4.3

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Ed

There is a "fix"

Well, I found a "fix", but this site won't let me post the link; it's to an "outside" site. Evidently, dashes and parentheses are now interfering with the voice dialing capability on GM cars. I have no idea why this fix works, maybe someone with the technical chops can explain it to us. But I can say that, after I exported my contacts, edited out all the "offending" characters, then re-imported the edited contacts into gmail, all was well and voice dialing worked again.

If you want the link, PM me and I'll send it to you.

I hope it works for you, and I hope someone can explain what's going on here. There was nothing "offensive" about parentheses or dashes two weeks ago. Something happened...
