hey guys - glad to be here. just leased a 2020 3.3T Sport in Mallorca Blue with the Red Stitching -- I love the car and have been itching to get it for a year or two now; my 39 month lease on my Infiniti Q60 dragged on forever lol.

i have only 1-2 complaints about the car so far -- curious if anyone else has theses issues

1. occasionally while my phone is plugged in for Apple Car Play, usually while listening to Pandora, the main screen ( i use half map half media) will glitch and not update the song/time - it makes me want to bash my head against a wall lol

2. occasionally when i first start the car, depending on how quickly i put the car in drive, the screen stays black. its almost like it doesn't have time to fully boot up.

3. its somewhat disappointing that we cant have the Drive Mode stay the same as it was before the car was turned off -- it automatically goes back to Comfort -- certainly not a big issue but kind of a pain.

looking forward to your responses!

It will only revert back to comfort if you leave it im sport. If you leave it in eco for example it will come back on that way. Im not sure if you do any highway driving but eco releases your torque converter and allows the whole car to go into "coasting" mode. Its a really neat feature and feels a little wild.
Welcome to the forum @matthewjoseph19! Yeah I'm not sure why Genesis set it up where Sport resets to comfort but i've seen the same thing.

With the center screen, is that the only time it stays in black or has it happened other times?

I vaguely recall it happening another time When I was on a phone call on Apple car play. After I hung up, the screen was black and didn’t revert back to the media/nav screen
I'm sure Genesis programmed it to convert to help us out with fuel efficiency. Have you been tracking your mileage?

I'm by no means gentle or fuel economy minded but if I go by trip its anywhere from 12mpg hard driving or 26-28 mpg in eco mode which is quite enjoyable during a morning commute.

Welcome aboard @matthewjoseph19, great color combo with the Mallorca Blue and Red Stitching. When you get a chance share some photos!

For a car not exactly built around fuel efficiency its indeed a great outcome. Lots of folks would be very happy with MPG within the high 20 range.

Anyone know if there's a way we can change the factory settings ourselves so it won't revert from Sport?
