SQ5

  • 10 miles
Audi's mmi has a parking aid which includes a 360 degree top view mode. Top view mode reverts to "graphic view" with each restart of the vehicle. Top view mode should keep the user's last setting which in my case is "camera view." Camera view is safer because the driver can actually see if there are any obstacles right up against the car (e.g. children) which sensors could miss. To switch to camera view, the driver needs to take their eyes off the road and click through the mmi menus. If parking with traffic, this is a distraction and also not safe. This defect in the software isn't being addressed by Audi in a timely fashion - it's been present for over a calendar year. New Audi vehicles apparently include a later mmi version which does not have this bug but they have not distributed a fix to existing vehicles.
