Another update. I took it into the SC today and decided to let service have a look at it before making a decision about returning it. The service guy went through each of my problems I listed and almost all of them were due to my perception of a defect due to lack of knowledge of the product. For example the glove compartment did not open because the car was actually in the “Off” mode when I had tried to open it which was triggered because I had exited my vehicle and gotten back in. As a safety precaution against a theft the car locks the glove compartment which you can unlock by pressing the brake and switching off the lock on the screen... not really all that intuitive but reassuring that it was doing what it was supposed to do.
The vibrating wheel was from lane departure warning but seemed inconsistent to me because you have to drive > 43 mph for a period of time before it will activate and any recent lane changes would suppress it, and of course you need to come close to crossing a lane so unless all those conditions are met it won’t go off which is why it appeared to occur at random.
The 2nd row seats, they will look at but corrected me that the vehicle *is* able to drive even if the seats aren’t locked - however I didn’t get a warning so that may have been a minor malfunction not sure.
The cruise control not adhering to my settings were likely due to the key fob not having a profile attached to it and also my lack of knowledge of how to customize the CC from the steering wheel in relation to the speed and what the on screen settings are...
Having all this explained to me restored my confidence in the car, so I think the experience of not being able to turn off CC that time may have been related to the new feeling of regen braking and possibly thinking I had pressed the brakes..? This I won’t ever know but the service guy reassured me that there is so much redundancy built into shutting off CC/AP that it would be extremely unlikely to happen.
Finally, the auto present door really is broken and needs diagnostics and probably a part. I’m giving them a chance to fix before the 7 days are up.
