Default convenient entry steering wheeel function

This function that moves the steering wheel up and in when you take the key out is working intermittantly. The button on the steering wheel is depressed and the seat memory button is on, but the feature will only work for a few entry and exits, then the wheel stays put. Anyone else use this feature or have this problem?
I am still waiting to hear from AoA about the transfer of the balance of the cpo warranty,so I may add this to the list of things to check if noone has experience with this

Default I use it and have had the same problem. I just say oh well and hit the memory button.

I wish we could get firmware updates...haha.

Default mine does it too

I have found that mine has some kind of problem with the ignition switch. If I turn the key off, pull it out and don't here the clunk, the wheel doesn't move to the rest position. It seems to be some kind of key in sensor, because the alarm wont arm either. Also if I put the key in and turn it before I close the door the wheel doesn't move. So I guess you should make sure the door is closed, the wheel wont move automatically if the door is open.
