When I start my car, I am automatically put on a private call. Right now, I just start a phone call to my voicemail and end it before it even connects. This ends the phone call on my bluetooth.

I love this car. but the bluetooth issues are just out of control.
Seriously! I've had it with the disconnect/reconnect problem.

I posted a lot of info I've experienced on this in a new thread:

this thread seems to be biased towards the texting stuff which I've always disabled as it hardly works.

Interesting. I've had recent issues with my MotoX (1st Gen).

Pretty much the same as you mentioned. Losing connection, regaining it and then promptly losing it again. Sometimes even during a phone call which is enraging. I chalked it up to the phone, until now. On a recent road trip I brought my iPad along to stream music from and I didn't have any issues. In fact, the sound was better than with the MotoX. I usually stream from Spotify via the MotoX and fairly often I get a crackling sound that I can sometimes get rid of by disconnecting/reconnecting the streaming device on the Lexus interface.

Good to know I'm not the only one. I've been looking at getting a new phone because of it, but maybe the phone isn't the problem.

Well, before I took the car in for services. I ask the Consultant to check out the Nav update for me. Maps only a yrs old so no need to update. But he says the firmware was out dated. So, they're updates to the new firmware.

I had the car back since Friday, but since then my phone connect n disconnect almost every 10-15mins.

Look like another trip back to the dealer.

Just want to know if anyone experience with the same issue.

What is the new version of your Bluetooth in the car? I've never had issues with connectivity, it's solid as can be.
