I tried a master reset on the car, a reboot of my phone, clearing the cache and data from the app (Google Hangouts, but it resysncs some stuff based on my google account), and even calling my aunt! Still, no luck. I did, however narrow down the problem a little further - if I use the right toggles on the wheel to select "listen" from the right screen in front of me, I'm told to call my aunt. If I hit the "listen" button on the main MFT screen I get the proper message read to me... Its quite strange as I get new entries in my messages in MFT from my aunt as if she had texted me at the exact same time as someone else and using the steering wheel toggles, the car thinks it has 2 messages coming in (it gives a different option in the main screen when there are multiple messages). I'm going to try pairing a friends Nexus 4 on Monday and see if I can replicate the issue. Outside of that, I'm stumped short of calling in a priest (or throwing in the towel and going to the dealer).
