| Description of the problem | Very serious safety hazard when using "nissan connect" hands-free system with all cell phones. "nissan connect" does not differentiate the difference when calling a person with multiple phone numbers. Instead of asking "would you like to call ____ on cell or at home"?, it asks you which phone number is correct? This now forces you to grab your phone, search for the contact, and verify which phone number is correct. The entire time, you are now distracted from driving and defeats the purpose of being hands free. This is a serious safety hazard with all nissan vehicles that have nissan connect. |
