Default Bluetooth Problem?

So, here's a new problem that just started a few days ago. During my normal 30 minute drive to work, my IPhone will disconnect and reconnect itself to the car 6-8 times. It disconnects, then within 6-10 seconds, it will reconnect itself. I have re-paired the phone to the car which did not improve the situation. I am going to try pairing my wife's phone to the car this weekend to see if the problem continues, but I have a strong feeling the problem is not with the phone.

Any thoughts?

Go to Settings on your iPhone, select Bluetooth, under devices click the circled i on the Chevrolet MyLink line, now click Forget this Device and remove the link from your phone (this link can get corrupted). Back to the car and pair the phone which will create a new phone link, should cure your problem. My iPhone Chevrolet link got corrupted and I started to loose functions. Dealer plugged test equipment into car and discovered that my phone was the problem (thought yea, right!) I preformed the above and all my lost functions returned. I had deleted and paired my phone before but didn't recreate the phone's link and the problem remained in the corrupted iPhone link. Hope this cures your problem.

The exact same thing happened to me this week as well!. I just did a reboot of the phone (holding the holding the button on the top and the circular button on the bottom of the front screen) and when it came back up it stopped doing it.

no problem the last few days...

I did as you suggested and the problem went away for about a day and came back. I have since taken the car back to the dealer who "reprogrammed" something to try to deal with the issue. Anyway, when I picked the car up this afternoon, the Bluetooth was doing the same thing. I will pair the wife's cellphone tomorrow and see if the problem continues.

I am still thinking it could be the phone...
