For non-M models, ASS defaults to activated every time the vehicle is restarted. Ditto for F9x models too, if I recall. For the G8x, ASS on/off selection is retained after the car is restarted and until the opposite selection is made.

So Geniuses may be unaware, by virtue of inexperience, that ASS operates differently in our cars than other current models.
