Phone Ringer
Is there a way to turn the Phone Ringer up in the car. Can hardly hear it, search the Manual but found nothing.

Try using the volume **** when the phone is ringing. That works for the volume of voice prompts but I don't know if it works for the ring tone.

Try turning up the volume of the ringer on your phone.

Yes that works for the voice, but not for the Ringer.

On our 2017 2LT, adjusting the radio volume while the phone is ringing does adjust the ringer volume.
I've gotta be quick or it doesn't work.

Why do you need the ringer up anyhow? If someone calls , it should pop up on the dash and radio, how in the hell can you miss it?

I find the ringer to be too obtrusive. I catch the change in the view of my screen in my peripheral vision, i see it on my HUD and in dash. Being fixated on just the road ahead is not good driving practice. Being aware of surroundings, cars around you, behind etc is all part of early driver training.
If you are still insistent, the phone call also interrupts music being played too, so not sure how you miss that.

The ringer is obvious to me and actually quite disruptive.
As it always takes me a few seconds to figure out what it is, I would like to be able to make the car's ringer to sound like my phone ring tone. I would then instantly know it is my phone.

There is two ringtones in the settings. Maybe a different ringtone might get your attention.
