3. Mirrors not unfolding - intermittent
The car mirrors occasionally fail to unfold when the car is unlocked and driven away. The car needs to be stopped, locked and unlocked again, before the mirrors will unfold.
4. Doors handles not opening - intermittent
Using the fob can occasionally fail to pop the door handles open - even with several new fob batteries, and using either of the two fobs.
Additonally, manually pushing the rear handles will often fail to open the doors until 2nd or 3rd attempt.
5. the car fails to start - intermittent
The car will occasionally fail to start while the fob and tracker have had several new batteries and are in their correct position in the cup holder. Shaking the fob key doesn't make any difference. The current solution requires the car to be locked and unlocked, often 2 or 3 times, before the car will start.
6. Windows Mysteriously open
On at least three occasions over the past few months, all car windows have opened while the car was parked, twice while locked.
After a supermarket trip, while unpacking the boot, all windows opened. The car doors were closed, the fob was in a drawer within 5m of the car, but obviously untouched.
Overnight, at a different location, while the car was locked with keys in a safe, all windows opened. Se
8. Sudden drop in battery state of charge
24 Feb - morning SoC was 70%, drove 2.5 miles to town with AC not working, parked 5 mins, drove home - SoC 51%
10. MPH switching to kph without changing settings
Not a great photo, but speedo automatically changed while driving in Ambleside from mph to kph - speed warning circle still in mph. This has happened several times, and at least once changed back automatically to mph before being able to pull over and change settings manually.
11. 100 MPH while driving less than 50mph
24 Feb - speedo briefly showed 100 mph zone while the car was driving in less than 50 mph, then reverted back to normal. All happened too quickly to get a photo.
12. Standby Mode Greyed out
Standby mode is often greyed out, even when the ignition is switched on
Having ignition on rarely makes any difference
13. Standby Mode switches off the alarm
Activating Standby Mode switches off the alarm, which could potentially void car insurance
14. Erroneous Theft alerts
The call centre cannot see this currently active theft alert in the app.
15. APP Warning Page Not Clearing
The call centre cannot clear this theft alert, which locks out all other features on the app. Deleting and reinstalling the app hasn't worked. AM appsupport@ are unable to clear the alert and notified that it will require a dealership visit.
16. Unlocked Rear Door Window Not Dropping
We've not had this for a couple of months, but the rear doors have occasionally not been able to be opened from the inside or outside as the windows wouldn't drop.
Almost always with the same elderly people trying the doors, so this may have something to do with the way they very very slowly open and hold the handles. The workaround has been to lock and unlock the car a few times and then open the
