I discovered the AUTO STEERING during ACTIVE CRUISE CONTROL will disable itself until the next key cycle if used on narrow country roads too often. I'm guessing the program thinks it isn't safe and the driver is abusing the programming? IDK why.
Did anyone find anything else?

That's a nice find. I'm quite the opposite. I know of up to 6 stations that I'm willing to listen. When I had my dodge, you had to select 12 stations. I ended up repeating the same 6 stations on the other 6.

Maybe they have commercials on music stations when you are getting XM for free the first 3 months. There were plenty of commercials on mine. Along with the Talk stations, Comedy stations have too many commercials.
Free trial shouldn't add commercials. It must be the specific stations you listen to. I listen to XMU, AltNation, Verge, Spectrum, Pulse and some other music stations and none ever have commercials. I know CNN and other news networks have plenty of commercials but that's because they are cable TV feeds.
I have been a subscriber of satellite radio for almost 20 years. In that time I have heard commercials on a few music stations but so few that they don’t bother me. What I like the most is that you can listen to one channel across the entire country if that’s your bag. I hate flipping through the radio dial every 30 -45 minutes to find another station that was in range that you liked.

Thank you for everyone's feedback. Maybe I've gotten too used to Pandora. Where there are no DJ spiels nor advertisements for upcoming events happening on that station. Perhaps I'm getting too used to not hearing interruptions.
Maybe I'm like my son whom saw regular television for the first time at his grandparents house. BTW, we are a streaming media house (Neftlix, Amazon Prime, etc). When he saw a commercial, he thought someone changed the station and started crying.

This may be more of a SAFETY feature, but when driving about 25 mph, I thought I was switching into SPORT mode. My dash starting sending me errors & alerts because 'I was spinning the wrong knob'! With 2 knobs are near one another, I'm certain this will not be the first time. The light on the knob went to R but I kept driving forward. I quickly turned it back to D. Luckily, the car did not slam into reverse (thank goodness). Just thought you know encase you accidentally do this yourself!
