My 13 does it often enough I hardly ever use controls on steering wheel. It is almost like roulette. Push a button and see what you get.

Man this is a lot more wide spread than I had thought. Weird. I'll ask the dealer about it when I take it in for service.

If you use your steering wheel controls, you'd find this little easter egg right away. I'll bet there is a manufacturing issue with some of them. I really thought I was just ******** up and accidentally hitting the other button at first. Glad to hear it's not just me.

Yeah, have the exact same problem. Haven't figured it out yet though

...Every now and then I'll hit the next track/station button on the wheel and it will instead go to the previous track...

Yes mine does it often...

My issue is when I hit the next station button and absolutely nothing happens...

Hi gang,

I'd get this on the radar of your respective dealerships; if you don't want to make a special trip, just mention it the next time you're in for a maintenance visit. Come back and share your results - I'll be here if you need help after getting a diagnosis.

Mine couldn't find anything wrong back when I had them look at it. Honestly I don't even bother using the steering wheel controls anymore. I learned to ignore them and not fight it since it wasn't worth it.
