- lsaferite 2y agoMy Kia has it as well.
- wlesieutre 2y agoMazda too
- DANmode 2y agoIn those cases, you just hold the signal to the point of switch activation, then let go when done.
- vel0city 2y agoI've had this feature in Chrysler, Ford, Honda, and Hyundai cars ranging in year from 1995 to 2021.
- martin_a 2y agoI think "comfort turn signal" is a feature all newer (2000+) cars should have. I haven't found one from that age that didn't have this feature.
- joecool1029 2y ago2002 Mazda Miata and 2002 Toyota Camry XLE don't have this. I couldn't find anything about it being a regulation, seems to have become common toward end of that decade though.
- organsnyder 2y agoWorks on my 2009 Honda and 2017 Chrysler.
- aaronmdjones 2y agoMy 2012 Vauxhall Astra does this.
- aaronmdjones 2y agoIt's been too long since I posted to edit this, so I'll reply to my own comment: something else my car does that isn't at all unique and some people might be delighted to learn (if theirs supports it too), is that if you hold down the unlock button on the keyfob (rather than press it), it lowers all of the electric windows, and if you hold down the lock button, it raises them. Useful if you left one of your windows open and it starts raining; you don't need to go to the car to shut the windows.
- joecool1029 2y agoAnother German car feature. There's some regulation in the US that requires them to be coded not to go back up (but you can change the coding with a cable). Family has an X5 that will go down as you describe but not up for those reasons.
