Default Input address via Voice Control?

When I use the voice control feature, I say

"Navigation, go to address", and the system understands what I say. At that point the system says back to me "not available in the current language" and won't let me input an address via voice. It does seem to understand "Navigation, restaurant" and other shortcuts like that.

I have checked the language settings, and they appear to just be English.

Is this something a software update should address? Or, is address-via-voice input just not supported in the U.S.?

I thought it would be appropriate and fun to use the British female voice and was told it would not accept voice input for some reason. Only American English on American Jags. Don't know if this is your problem or not.

I was told that the language must be set to "American" not English. I didn't know that we have our own language. I thought we spoke English.

Yep--you guys are right. You have to set the spoken language for the Nav to American English. I don't know why the language the Nav speaks to you matters when recognizing what you speak to it, but apparently it does.

It is one more oddity of this wonderful car. You would think the British would want us to hear stuff in their accent. lol
