I updated the car's software last week and noticed a new notification yesterday informing me of a recommended route. The car had decided that I usually drive a certain route on a Sunday so cleverly decided to ask if I wanted the satnav to guide me there.

There's an option to reject the route so that's what I did but despite this the notification remained in place. The only way to remove the notification was to accept the recommended route and then stop it.

I assume this is a bug.

That would certainly bug a lot of folk I imagine. :wink:

It has always been there and annoys me when I start the car up and it asks if I want to go to Sainsburys as it's assuming (quite correctly) that I don't have a life :D

Mines started doing this over the last couple of days. Notification to take me back to my home address every time I start up and won’t allow me to reject the notification. Very annoying!!!
