What things annoy you on Emira?

[allenyao09]

Things that annoy me the most:
- shifter cable rattle on throttle in 5th and 6th, no fix from the dealer
- intermittent carplay issues, won't automatically play the next song
- the steering ratio is too small paired with the thick steering wheel
I've gotten used to the other quirks such as no keyless entry, seats, mysterious creaks, no auto high beam or blind spot assist...

I would prefer manual seats for the weight savings. My wife complains she can not lock unlock the doors from the passenger side. She likes to lock the doors when I go to the store. We have a lot of sketchy people in the city on meth and fenty.

I also had a ZL1 addons tow hook on but never had any issues. What tow hook do you have?

This one. Other than the sensor going off I also have a problem with it not being exactly leveled. so I was wondering how people line it up or maybe I need to tighten it a bit more

I have the GRP tow strap one, it also triggers the sensor, and it was annoying, now I use a rubber band to keep it tight, and it worked for me.
I can also confirm that mine is not leveled, I just tight it as far as possible and leave it as is:

The other thing that I wish it was simpler is opening and closing the Trunk door. Sometimes I push the button, and it won't open, and sometimes I close it and discover it was not closed properly. But I can live with that.

One more point not mentioned here, the paddles are positioned further to the right, I have the LHD. Not sure why it is not centered in the middle. Again, you get used to it.

It looks good on your car I might switch to the strip then

Love the car. But wish...

-Seats would move back automatically whenever you open doors to aid entry/exit. I currently use memory settings to do this.
- Parking brake located near gear shift instead of under the dash.
- Wish there were dedicated 'next track' 'prev track' buttons on the wheel instead of having to scroll to the media section and then doing it.
- Wish the volume knob could move side-to-side for next track / prev track.
- Not sure why the seat belts are twisted weird
- Wish android auto google maps could be displayed on driver display

Particularly agree with "Parking brake located near gear shift instead of under the dash.", although as it's electronic, if it automatically came on when you brake to a standstill and went off when you pull away (which would take the guesswork out of will the hill start assist work on this gentle slope?), then the location of the button wouldn't be much of an issue.
