Default Great car. Horrible software

Brand new 2017 XF. Lots to love. Except the software. How many bad things?

Slow response to inputs. Sometimes (random) fails to take an input. Odd behaviors of some button (design). Remote app is slow and fails often. (For example sometime just won't start the car. I error messages or anything. Just refuses to work)

The Iin-Control approach to leveraging your iPhone is also terrible and. Early useless.

sometimes after using the phone car won't hang up. So you have to actually make another call and hang up using the phone itself in order for the car to disconnect.
Bottom line in this day and age software that is this slow, buggy, feel you're prone, poorly designed is simply not acceptable. At any level.Great car but frankly I would not recommend anyone buy one.

I have a much older one (2010) but agree - the weakness of the car is it's electronics.
