    We have a 2010 bought in January 2010. It has a blue tooth that is located on the right side of the steering wheel under the dash.
    The issue is it seems to be not working correct.

    There use to be a blue light come from it and not it shows it being connected but when a call comes in it rings through the bluetooth, but when you attempts to answer the call it does not come through the bluetooth.

    I also have a III, I never noticed the blue light but I'll check in the morning. My old cell phone connected very well, my new one has a lot of static and unpairs itself occasionally.

    Thanks, I am syncing a iPhone 3Gs. The same phone I have been using since we got the car.

    Sorry, I couldn't find the blue light. Mine is a very early model bought in June of 2009, I'm sure there were changes as 2010 was such an extended model year. Have you taken it to the dealer?

    Thanks, for your time and help.

    I removed the bluetooth from the phone and the car, then reinstalled it and it works again.

    The 2010 III comes from the factory with bluetooth, the II does not, OP probably has the port installed bluetooth option that mounts on the panel to the left of the steering wheel.

    OP: Glad to see you got it working again!
