Hi all,
I recently purchased a 2011 Hyundai Elantra Ltd with Nav, and I love it. The only problem is that my cell phone will not pair with the car's bluetooth interface. I have a Samsung Rogue, and the Hyundai website specifies that this phone IS compatible with my 2011 Elantra. However, when I attempt to pair the phone to the car, it immediately says "Pairing Failed" on my phone (the only way to pair a phone to the '11 Elantra is to do it from the phone, can't do it from the car). Yes, both devices are in discovery mode and all settings are set correctly. We tried pairing someone else's Droid phone to the car and it worked perfectly, so the bluetooth on the car isn't totally busted. We brought the car in to get serviced and they reset the Nav system (took it out and re-installed it), and that didn't help. They were supposed to install a new Nav system from Hyundai, but the device they received was faulty and they won't get a new one for a little while. They also tried to pair my Samsung Rogue with an '11 Hyundai Sonata, and that worked fine.
I also brought my phone to the Verizon store but their system was down and they can't really do much except re-load the most recent software update (and my phone is already up-to-date in terms of software).
My question is (and I thank you for having the patience to read this post): Is there anything else I can do to get my phone to connect with the car?
I truly appreciate your help!!!
