Climate hold stops after vehicle access?

[AMaier]

It seems like Climate Hold turns off after I access my vehicle. If I set it for 8 hours and go out to my car once to get something then the next time I go out (maybe an hour later) it is off and very hot again.

I have tempature sensitive goods like life saving medicine, chocolate & snacks, crayons for the kids, and am often hopping in and out of the car in low 90°F outside tempatures. Is Climate Hold suppose to keep the climate on all day as I expect, or is it designed to turn off after any vehcial access?

I am nearly certain that if you access the car it “resets” the climate as it assumes your “hold” is over (and you are now in the car).

You’ll have to tap it again (and/or re-confirm, i think).

Given your needs, is perhaps a plug in cooler with the outlets “on” a better choice?

Don't mean this to be snarky but if you have such sensitive items in the vehicle and you now know the climate resets each time you return to the vehicle, why not accept the situation and adjust to it. Just make it a point of your routine to reset the climate hold, until the feature is updated or reworked in the future.
