Default Traffic warning announcements

Anyone know if there is a way to disable/silence the voice traffic notification - "warning, narrow lanes", "warning, road closed", etc? My car has Nav. Find it very annoying most of the time!

Thanks!

There a couple of things you could do.

The traffic info/alerts come from XM radio, so you could cancel that portion of the service, or you could just turn the alerts off in the Nav settings including voice prompts.

What I hate is you have to have the voice prompts to have it displayed in the traffic menu. I wish I could turn off the prompts but still have the information in the menu.

Yep I agree, this will be the last car I get with factory Nav. CarPlay all the way!

She was annoying me on the way home from taking delivery. Turned off the Nav and have never turned it on since. I use my iPhone GPS.
