    Just yesterday was told people could barely understand me talking through my car and had to put on speaker on my phone.

    I see the microphone up top near the sunglasses holder

    Has anyone had this issue?

    Were the windows open at the time ?
    Was the AC going full blast ?
    Was the radio playing ?
    Were you yelling at the mic ?
    Was a big noisy truck in the lane beside you ??

    Typically the mic's are very sensitive and the fidelity not too good.
    Background noise can be a killer.

    With almost any car model.

    Well then some more "test" calls would be in order.
    And then a dealer visit if it is still under warranty and / or it really is a problem for you.
