    Abstract: A voice-activated system for a vehicle having a vehicle control and a vehicle structure. The voice-activated system comprises a control system and lever assembly. The control system comprises a controller configured to receive at least one voice command and deliver a signal and a drive system configured to receive the signal from the controller. The lever assembly comprises at least one arm portion and defines a lever cavity. The lever assembly is connected to the control system and defines a neutral position, and at least one activated position. The lever assembly is connected to the drive system so when the drive system receives the signal, the lever assembly is moved between the neutral position and the activated position. The lever assembly is arranged so the vehicle control extends through the lever cavity and the arm portion is configured to engage the vehicle control in the activated position.
