To fix the text messaging, try this:
On your iPhone, go to Settings.
go to Bluetooth
look for your car's head unit in the list (mine says "Car Multimedia")
Tap the Info icon (the circled "i") on the right.
On the next screen, switch the "Show Notifications" setting to the on/green setting.
That's what worked for me with my 5S and this head unit.

It works via the USB cable. I can't recall if it also works via Bluetooth. But first you have to set it up:
1) If you've not done so, go online to
www.AhaRadio.com and create an Aha account.
1a) There will be some stations already set. You can search and add others, delete some (except for the Scion music channel, maybe some others), re-order the list, etc.
2) If you've not done so, download and install the Aha app onto your iPhone and sign into your Aha account.
3) When you are in your car, launch the Aha app on your iPhone.
4) Then from the head unit, pick Aha radio.
4a) On your phone, you may need to tell the phone it's OK to connect to the Aha from your head unit.
From there you can use your head unit to pick one of your Aha stations to listen to, certain podcasts are available, there is weather, other helpful features, though they don't alway work real well.
When properly set up, it will recite tweets to you from your Twitter feed, and supposedly does similar with Facebook but I've not tried hard to make that work.
I like the idea of Aha but its execution falls a bit short.
