Default With Bluetooth.. Does anyone know???

I know you can program more than one phone into the Bluetooth Infotainment Center but what happens when both phones enter the car together. Is there a pecking order?

I have my phone programmed into my car and my wife's phone in her car but often wondered if I could and should have them both programmed into both cars or might that cause a problem?

I think when you have two paired phones in the car at the same time it defaults to the one that was most recently connected - but you can than change it.

That is what I would hope for. I do occasionally drive the wife's car and would like it connected to my phone but if we are both in the car together I would hope that it would pair to hers as the primary driver. I don't want it to create a problem.

For my 2014, the first bluetooth the radio sees at startup is the one it connects to, unless both phones are in the car then the last connection wins.

If it grabs the wrong phone, I usually toggle off bluetooth on the phone, then hold down the power/vol button on the radio to restart the nav system. This forces it over to the phone with working bluetooth.
You can toggle them in the phone menu, but for iPhone the above method works faster and easier for me.

You do know that they are removing Pandora from the app list next month, right? Unless you mean using your phone only to run it. That won't change.
