Dropped mine off at dealer today. Wow, I didn't know people were having fires, or I might have taken it sooner.

Good info to know, the cruise not disengaging as mentioned by someone earlier could be kind of scary. Hope they get this sorted out.

That makes perfect sense to me....

My brake switch fails when the outside temperature is above 95 degrees. Mostly my cruise control kicks off. Kind of startling when it happens at 75mph.

I have not changed the switch yet because I just hate to leave it at the dealer. But he promises it will only take 15 minutes while I wait. So I will get it done pretty soon.

What is this radio fade update? Did I miss something?
