I'll break this into two components:
1. Is there a button for the thing I'm trying to do?
2. Does the button in (1) do what I expect it to do?
(2) drives me crazy. And I'm sure it's both a blessing and a curse as cars continue to pack tech under their hoods/into their dashes.
The climate system "Auto" function is my favorite nuisance. It used to be that you had temperate and fan speed and they operated rather intuitively. Now "Auto" does something. I'm not quite sure what. Is it reading my body temperature? Interior temperature? Exterior temperature? How does it determine fan speed? Passengers?
Even in a car with tech, I revert to barbaric adjustments: open windows when it's nice out (NYC metro area), seat heaters when it's cold (Northeast standards), and the Max A/C when the humidity is unbearable.
You know what's awesome? All of those things have, in my cars at least, buttons! I know what they do!

- lostmsu 5y agoOn my Honda auto seems perfect for me. It looks like it keeps internal temperature and only turns on fan to ventilate, heat, or cool.
