I’ll start off by saying I really like the addition of remote climate…. but the limitations and functionality really cripple it.
Why does it have a 15 minute limit and one extension, to a total of 30 minutes?
Why does it give you an error if you try to use it again if you stop it or try to restart it? Why does it set the alarm if you set remote climate from inside the car and then not recognize that you have your PAAK inside the car when you open the door?
My wife and I recently drove with our dog down to South Padre to see the Starship launch. We left from San Antonio after work but did not arrive at the tent campsite on SPI until 1:30am. I have the defeat device for the pedestrian warning so we are able to park quietly with out waking anyone and the only sound was the annoying door open alert (well the step retract too). I used the remote climate because you can control the temperature from the back seat and it turns off the dash light and the main control screen is dimmer. After 15min I realized I need to go to the bathroom so I open the door to get out and a new chime I had never heard went off and three seconds later the alarm went off. I quickly tried to open FP and also crawled to the front to hit the start button, but the silence was already broken and I was that guy. Later it would not let me extend the climate so I had to turn the truck on and flash everyone with my startup lights. I realize how first world problem this is but come on. Does nobody else ever sleep in their car for a night? How do you take this opportunity to have an improved featue and ruin it so much?
