    There is an option (on get 2 atleast) for setting it to use or avoid major roads, that may help.

    Well the globe replacement was $39.10 and not warranty. Bit unhappy, previous gig was a Lexus, never had such fights (or blown globes)

    Just a couple of squeaks and rattles from mine so far.

    One is the plastic scuttle tray creaking and rubbing on the windscreen as previously mentioned by a few others (their reporting helped me diagnose my own issue..... so that's terrific)

    The other is a squeaking centre console. Only happens when I rest my arm on it. Seems to be coming from the lid itself.

    Both easily rectifiable I'd say. At least I'll be able to point exactly to the issues on it's next service. Nothing worse than an unidentifiable rattle...... drives me nuts

    I'm thinking it might be time to make good on my promise and notify a few media outlets about the dangerous issue we are having with our cruise control.

    Had the problem occur on the F6 the other day when I was in the outside lane. By the time I realised, I had a truck bearing down on me.

    You need to do it. Its a safety issue and there should be a recall for it. My Gen I never did it, and neither did any of my other past & present cars...
