What brand of handset are you using ? Car make and model please. Try unpairing phone...then pair again. Good luck.

Using an acatel phone and it's a Rogue suv. I've had the car for a month or so and it worked fine this started last Friday. Uninstalled it today and reinstalled but still doing it.

Have you tried to do a software update on your phone recently ? Give that a try and let us know if that helps.

Will give that a try. Thanks.

Let us know if that helps. It doesn't sound like this is a Public Mobile issue but a phone / vehicle one. If the software update doesn't fix things, check at the place where you purchased the vehicle or look on-line. Good luck.

Just in case check if Call forwarding feature is set on your phone.

I just checked my call forwarding and it is disabled but I noticed there are three other forwarding. Forward when busy forward when unanswered forword when unreachable. They all have the same number a 1 705 number. I looked it up on google and it belongs to telus in barrie. Do I turn these off also? I didn't even know these were there.

Does it ended with 4001? If yes it's the voicemail...

705-581-4001? That is your voice mail number.

Yes it does..

Do I turn these off also? Will that make any difference to my phone? I am so challenged when it comes to anything technical..(lol)

You should not need to turn off any of the forwarding items.

Your issue sounds like either a handset setting or an issue with the dashboard setup of the bluetooth.

Could it simply be a ring to let you know you're taking the phone out of the car?

Do you use any software apps such as IFTTT? This app allows making your phone (or another device) do things when you do other things with your phone. For example, when I get home, my phone turns on WiFi automatically, and my living room lights turn on.

I'm not sure, it could just be that, the car letting me know I have my phone.

@sue-s seems a very odd feature. I've never heard of this one before. Maybe try an online Nissan community to see if other Rogue owners are experiencing this?

Well I have no explaination but my phone is not doing it anymore. So I guess it's fixed itself..

Thanks for this information! Pairing a phone in a rental car is quite a challenge. The challenge dials up when you’re trying to pair a phone to a car you’ve just rented. https://iversta.com - more about Rental Car BlueTooth.

Kia user Android and iPhone. If I leave my keys in the car, my Kia honks at me. Unfortunately the car doesn't do this for the paired phone. When I open the door the pairing drops and my phone takes over. If you might have a phone feature that suspends use when driving (apple does this automatically unless you alter the default settings) and you are getting notification sounds (?)
