Thank you for this post! I have been trying to figure out how to get my car to stop thinking and only searching New Mexico addresses.

Unless it was the car trying to tell me it was too cold, as I'm nowhere near NM.

Sat down with the wife in my car, connected her phone, configured her key. Show her how to launch Car Play and how to use voice for both Siri and the Car. She was literally blown away. Being able to use both systems was a real eye opener. She's never really gotten into Car Play other then maps.
Short press: I'm cold.
Short press: turn on my heated seat.
Long press: read my messages.
She says.... Hmmm... Maybe I do need a new car. 🤣😍
