Review on ๐Ÿš— Anker ROAV SmartCharge F0 Bluetooth FM Transmitter for Car, Audio Adapter & Receiver, Hands-Free Calling, MP3 Car Charger with Dual USB Ports, PowerIQ, AUX Output - No Dedicated App by Chris Knight

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value and sound, but.

Got this for my 2009 Sonata which doesn't have Bluetooth. Setup was quick and easy. The sound quality is EXCELLENT, there were no complaints on the other end of the line, I was heard loud and clear. BUT this turned my TPMS warning light on in the dash! At first I loved taking something to the mechanic to fix! But while reading about the TPMS warning light to correct myself, I read about how radio frequencies are used to send data to the car to warn if there's a problem. Hmm, I thought. Unplugged the Roav FM transmitter and voila! After a few minutes the TPMS light went out. Roav turned back on and about 15 minutes later the TPMS light came on again. Extinguished and the light went out again. Read on to find out if this is an issue with some car chargers/FM transmitters. Edit: Anker Customer Service (CS) read my review and the amazing customer service rep Vanessa sent me a replacement Roav F2 (step forward) but unfortunately the same thing happened as above. I contacted Anker and they immediately sent me another F2 replacement to make sure the issue was indeed reproducible. Again, the TPMS indicator toggles on and off depending on whether the transmitter is connected and active. I contacted CS and Vanessa promptly refunded my purchase price with no issues and was promised that this would be looked into. CS is a pleasure to work with and she does everything to make her customers happy! Keep it up!
