Steering wheel phone controls

Yeah. Just tried it and it looks like you have to use the touch screen unfortunately.

Those dummies. I'm guessing the small right hand portion of the screen stays in phone call mode while you're on a call.

So you have to use the touch screen?

Seems like. I'm even less concerned about that. In most cars the end call button also mutes the radio. I need that.

Don’t need radio... just need Baja exhaust turned on. All the music one needs. lol

Aren't most people using Android auto or Apple car play? Ending the call on screen doesn't seem that bad. Also, almost every phone will disconnect after 3 seconds of signal loss. So as long as you aren't trying to make a point of hanging up on someone..you can end the conversation and after they hang up, your phone will hang up as well without you doing anything. Feel free to try it, it works

So another over site on Ford’s part. Just like their terrible integration of Apple CarPlay. I don’t understand how they can screw something up so important yet so easy.

What is wrong with CarPlay?

I pushed all the buttons.

Perhaps a double button press or a 'hold press'. It seems to be the trend these days when space is limited to put multiple functions on a single button.

I understand that the call will hang up. That isn't the point. I would like to end the call. Either way, it's whatever, I can do it on the screen. If you read one of my previous posts here, this isn't really the issue. In most cars, the End Call button also mutes the radio. That is the functionality I really miss.

I get it that there is limited space on the steering wheel and Ford had to make sacrifices to include all of the options there on the Raptor. It isn't a huge deal and I am not going to sell my Raptor because the button is gone. I just found it strange that it is not there.

Is there a way to activate Siri?
