Somebody please help me figure out if im overlooking something simple, or this car is just created ass backwards.
For example, i have my ipod in, it shows a list of everything on my screen, HOWEVER, i cannot use the steering controls to either a) select through the songs, albums, or tracks, OR, use the back button on the steering wheel. This all has to be done via the touch screen.
Same with any features, including map or settings.. i simply cannot move through any menus or go back using the steering wheel... this all has to be done on the touch screen or buttons on the console.
This is dangerous. Is the back button and other controls really only function on the little screen next to my speedometer?
Which brings to my last point... so they designed this that when i drive i have to literally use the touch screen to operate my audio, other than skipping through tracks or adjusting volume, which can be done via steering controls, but they unhighlight the HOME button on navigation so i cant hit home to bring me home while im driving? I understand disabling nav features like typing while driving (although why the passenger cant do that is beyond me) so nav and then some are disabled so the driver can pay attention while driving, but to control my audio and settings i have to be distracted and use the touch screen? !!? Wtff.
Please somebody clarify this, as mentioned maybe i am missing a setting. This is a 2015 altima w nav etc
