I have two cars from FCA group with different infotainment systems:
1) a Fiat 500x with Uconnect Live 6.5"
2) an Alfa Romeo Stelvio (same Infotainment as Giulia) with Alfa Connect Nav 8.8’’
The Fiat 500x works flawlessly with Siri, when I click on the steering wheel voice activation command, then Siri responds via the car's speakers. In addition, voice dictation works fine.
On the Alfa Romeo instead, my iPhone behaves strangely, with no apparent explanation or message to the user. When is connected in the car Bluetooth, the voice control button on the steering wheel starts the car's own assistant, Siri doesn’t react.
When I click on Home button, Siri tries to start, but when I speak it does not hear anything, it keeps asking me to say something. In addition, the voice dictation does not listen.
There is no explanation on the iPhone on this behaviour, but I think it's not related to the phone as it works very well on the Fiat. It might be related to the Infotainment system of the Stelvio, new but aged at the same time. I hope there will be firmware fixes for that.
