Did a quick search with no Joy. I don't use nav much, but I noticed the past few times that it stopped talking to me. The settings show it set to voice responce, but it won't talk to me. I feel to ghosted!

Anyone else?

It's never happened to me but have you tried rebooting it? Push the volume and fast forward at the same time and hold for 5 seconds and see if that works.

I think I have more questions for you than answers for the moment, but here goes…
What version maps do you have?
Did you ever do a nav update?
Can you search for a destination by using the voice button?
Are you sure you do not have the voice muted (speaker icon while on a route)?

Mine did it; for mine the volume got turned down somehow. It's a pain to fix because you can only adjust it using the volume control and only when it's actively talking.
I figured a reboot would reset it to the factory default level, but there's a repeat button. So after setting an address just drive and after a short distance just press the repeat button and adjust it quickly.

Thanks all.... I will check. I drive rarely and use nav even less, so I'll look. Appreciate it.

You need to do a Master Reset to go back to factory defaults. The volume & fast forward just restarts the system, same as turn off the truck then starting it up again. Master Reset is in the Sync menus under General/Sync.

Mine is the same way using Waze. Separate volume control using same knob. Got to be fast to get it adjusted! ?
