Samsung automatically makes phone calls when in car

[Deleted User] · 2018-04-18 18:10:16

This has just started today. My S7, sitting on a stand in the car, recurrently rings a number for exactly 10 seconds, and then cuts out. There's chiming sounds while this is going on.

Would anybody know what is causing this and how to rectify it? Grma/Tks.

What number does it ring? Is it the most recent number dialled, first number in the phonebook or random one? Could it be voice dialing activated and it's happening when a certain word is said either by you on the radio?

Thanks. I just went into Settings==> Accessibility==>Answering and Ending calls and 'Answer calls with voice' is already turned off. I can't find the relevant setting to stop the phone making the calls in the first place.
