I was so hyped about this new service being offered by Verizon. It was on November 19 that I posted I had received my package from Verizon which included the OBD reader, the speaker and all the associated parts. I charged the speaker as instructed. I paired the speaker with my iPhone and with the Bluetooth multimedia system in the car. I plugged in the OBD reader and attached the speaker to the visor. I activated my account online as instructed in my "Welcome" email. I was all set for this new experience. And what happened. Well, ... nothing. I did not get a welcome message after driving the car. I tried to reset everything on my own. That didn't work. I made several calls to their "800" number and quickly realized the problem could not easily be resolved. So, reluctantly, I sent it back. I think this is a wonderful idea and I was really disappointed that it did not work for me. It is new and as with most new things, it will take some time for the system to run smoothly. I will try again in a few months and see if I have a better experience.
