Default Homelink Power

Okay not sure if this is just me or anyone else that owns an S4, but does your home-link buttons NOT work when the car is off? Small issue but really?

I pulled into my driveway, turned off the car to finish texting someone, and when I was done and the car was fully off (I might have opened the door for air), when I attempted to press the Homelink button the garage failed to open. It wasn't until I realized the buttons weren't lit that it clicked that the car had to have power in order for the buttons to work.

My previous cars, 2013 Lexus IS 200 and 2013 Lexus CT 200h never had this issue as the buttons were located on the mirror and worked without the car having to be on or standby.

Anyone else run into or know about this issue?

Not an issue. It works this way in all Audis. Presumably, so someone can't break into your car and open your garage.
