Voice Command PITA
today i was utilizing the voice command to call my home. everytime i said "call home" she replied "GO HOME". after several attempts i quit. i tried to use voice for an address... i'm not going to continue because i'll write a few paragraphs. my question is, does anyone think the cold weather is interfering with the electronics? it's been 30/35 degrees here lately.

I really do not think so, the voice recognition system is much better in the new generation unit that came in the 2013 models. Sometimes the unit cannot distinguish between call or go, so I usually use the term dial to get to the phone menu, and then use call.

Does our voice system "learn" the more we use it? Seems like to me that the more I use it, the more it recognizes commands better. It's either that, or I've started talking more clearly and scaled back my NC accent :-)

thanx fellas. i'll try again today and see if i get the same results. i've always used the term "call home" and never had a problem. i'll use different terms and see what happens.

The owner's manual has a list of commands, but I suspect the actual list is more extensive...hopefully.
"go home" works for me, as does the destination by address.
Calling by last name is usually a problem, so I have to use first names.
Lexus should have put in an ability to learn, perhaps let you pick a contact, and then have you pronounce it.
I was hoping there was a voice command to suspend guidance, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

There are times when I say "Call XXXX" and it doesn't recognize the command. It is very frustrating. It always recognizes "Go Home", so at least I know I will always make it home and can call from there.

Hey guys, a quick note, but "Call Home" and "Go Home" should be considered different. The "Go Home" command quickly picks up your home address which is already known by the car, while the "Call Home" command looks for "Home" in your phone address book. I have never had a problem "Go"ing Home, but a few times "Call Home" has picked another address in my address book (eg. "Mom and Dad Home" instead).

i've used the "call home" command countless times with no problem. that day it just didn't recognize the command. why? i don't know. today i used the "it's too cold command and her reply was "pardon", instead of raising the heat like it always does when i use that command. i think the cold weather has something to do with it.

the HB contains hydrocarbons which in turn causes electronic instability in the computer circuitry resistors in our cars. . Thanx... I think she'll be fine.
