Bluetooth audio stuck on activating
Last night my bluetooth wouldn't activate. It would connect, but got stuck on activating bluetooth. This is the first time this has happened. I deauthorized it and re added it, same problem. Any ideas?

It could be a phone compatibility thing. Try removing the phone and adding it again to your car. Also, I had multiple phones (actually 3) added to my car and it kept activating. Now I have just one and have no problems anymore.

Try soft reset on infotainment screen by holding eject CD button for about 10 seconds
