SMS messages with iphone 5c.

With an iphone 5c will the display show text messages and read them out?

I asked the dealer and they said it won't show sms messages with iphones. It doesn't even give you the option on the phone to enable notifications.

No, I can't. The option to enable notifications isn't there. It was when I was driving an M-Sport with advanced bluetooth but not with my car.
