    Two questions about the Summon feature

    I learned a good lesson on the summon feature yesterday. I was parked at work, with the nose of my car too close to a wall to allow me access to the frunk. I initiated summon with my phone and the car started to back away. As I walked back the few feet with my car I must have moved out of...

    Can we arrange to reserve a large block of Valet spaces in a surface lot? Perhaps on hotel property along the Great American Parkway, or maybe across the street on the other side of The great American Parkway in the corporate ot of CPO? A surface lot lets us avoid the craziness in the large...

    New TMC member and S85 owner curious about TMC Connect
