Last week, I bought a 2014 Spark EV 2LT with DC Fast charge, and have not been able to use the MyLink Radio features successfully.
Issue #1 - I cannot play ANY of my iTunes media files. According to the web site http://www.chevrolet.com/mylink-bring-your-own-media.html “Chevrolet MyLink supports a large variety of song file formats, including MP3, WMA and AAC.” Yet, it won’t recognize ANY of my AAC files, it only recognized MP3 files.
Issue #2 - I cannot connect my iPhone 4S to the USB port and have the radio identify the device. I can’t have the BringGo Map application (which I purchased for $60) work with the car, I can’t have the TuneIn, Stitcher, or Pandora applications function with the Smart Link integration at all. The ONLY think I can do is pair via Bluetooth and have the Spark act as a bluetooth speaker for audio.
Issue #3 - When I do plug my iPhone 4S into the USB port, the phone constantly tries to charge and then fails, and then repeats. This is indicative of too low of amperage to successfully charge the device.
I brought the car into City Chevrolet (my dealer) and they had an identical Spark EV and another iPhone, and all three problems were the same in both cars, with both iPhones with all cables we tried.
The technician contacted GM Tech support and they suggested using the Bluetooth audio since their car and iPhone did not work either.
So, is anyone else seeing these issues?
