The thing I’m most annoyed about is that they took the vent temperature control wheel off the dash and buried the control deep in the i-Drive. You can still change the temp of the dash vents, but its so inconvenient (and distracting) that I tend to stay too hot or too cold, particularly at times of year like this where temps vary widely from day to day. I find the current solution to be extremely inconvenient and dangerous. Bring back the wheel!
Also, I’m annoyed that the rain sensor wipers don’t self-cancel when you turn off the car. I’ve gone through the car wash a few times to watch my wipers flapping away. After driving BMWs for 25 years that self-cancel, this is hard to get used to. My ‘17 X5 has the most elegant solution, IMO. A button at the end of the wiper stalk that turns on the rain sensor and turns it off when the car shuts off.
Other than those two things it’s the perfect car for me!
