    There is a setting through the head unit, I think through messaging, where you can have it pop up.

    Delete and re-pair the phone to the truck. During the process it should ask if you want to allow access to SMS.

    Yes did that too. It's probably either the phone or the truck itself. Everything on both ends is on

    My 21 gives a notice but will not allow me to read it. I can tap the notification and it will read it for me and play over the speakers. I'm using Android Auto. I just assumed it's a safety feature.

    I figured that might be the case. I'm very happy with Android Auto. The weather radar app mentioned on the forum is a nice add on. Someday Google maps will have the radar overlayed.
