    Yes, lots of software updates, a fix to fix the fix that didn’t fix the first fix etc etc etc, the car may have been ready to go but the software wasn’t designed by software engineers but automotive engineers and this is the result, once the problems surfaced they decided to employ the right kind of people in a dedicated software department but they’re left trying to fix a badly designed system, think the next gen will be new from the start so should work.

    What I found the worst was the sliders on the steering wheel, so easy to adjust something while just driving and not realising what had happened and then you’re left looking everywhere but the road in front trying to figure out what’s going on, down right dangerous really.

    The other thing I hadn’t known about until I saw the paperwork for this car was that when you buy one they have weight limits on passengers, ie if you’re a bit on the generous side you shouldn’t be buying their car!!! ?? Never heard of that on any car I’ve ever had before.
