Re: What?
sorry, you got it wrong. Several cars I've rented in the USofA have a nagging habit of forgetting the settings. One totally lost itself because the battery had to be replaced (2month old car). Nothing worked apart from the stupid 'get me to a dealer mode'. The nearest dealer wanted $500 to re-enable the car. Thankfully the Rental Company told them what they could do with their business in the future if they charged for the service.
Just a glimpse of the future IMHO
So your post should read
My first question would be "how do I switch all that shit off SO THAT IT NEVER COMES BACK ON?"
It looks like my next car will be my last. I really don't want all this shite.
