SMALL, BUT ANNOYING AS HELL! i know! THATS WHAT SHE SAID!!!

Am I the only one that thinks the volume toggle and the next song toggle on the steering wheel are backwards. Volume is UP & down g*d damit, not left to right. And the song search is left to right, not UP & down g*d damit!!!!!!

every time I go to turn the volume up, I change the song, damit that frustrating!!!

 

haha, I thought the same man. Just got used to it.

 

When it comes to ergonomics, you should never expect your target audience to retrain natural behaviors. It should be intuitive and natural.

 

They're right.

I want my stations UP and running cause I'm DOWN to the tunes AND I want my volume just RIGHT, because I don't want to be LEFT out of talk radio.

Toyota is just trying to be logical about it.

 

i dont like the new lay out compared to my old 14! u cant change fm stations easy anymore!

 

+1. took me about 2 weeks to adjust

 

? did u fix it?

 

yes I fixed "it".... it being myself.

 

I'm still not used to it, and probably never will be and it's been four months

 

screw that... ok now im gonna find an answer!

 

i just took the switch out and rotated it counter clock wise. solved my problem.

 

I was going to take it out and Turn it, but it still wouldn't be right

 

LOL .... yes volume everywhere else is the up and down button. I had a hard time adjusting .... and then I looked at the stereo when I was increasing the volume and saw the lighted sliding bar moving on the stereo. I think it is left to right to coincide with the slider on the stereo for the volume moving left and right.

 

I agree, still a stupid idea

 

I agree OP. Not intuitive. I let Toyota know my thoughts when they sent me their post-purchase survey (not that it'll do any good).

 

Totally agree OP. I complained on the survey too. The guilty person at Toyota needs to be verbally abused for that one... And given a nickname.

 

Also dumb design to have Stereo controls on Left side of steering wheel, furthest away from Stereo.

 

Japanese engineers on the other side of the world.
For them there is no up and down just east and west. It just works with the cab being short and the hood being long. Hood longer than the bed. See a recurring theme here?

 

You are correct, sir. I've had mine for four months and still skip to the next song when I want to turn it up.

 

Without a doubt, 2014 GMC & Chevy are the worst!! They love their buttons, toggles, & rocker. Mirrors have 7 buttons & rocker switches to operate the 2 door mirrors. The center arm rest is higher than the door arm rest. Software is junk. Dealership doesn't have a clue.I could write a book. Traded my 2014 GMC SLT, 26,000 miles on a '16 Tacoma TRD Sport 4x4 accress, lovin' it!. First American made vehicle I've owned since 1985, when GM had to buy back my Buick Electra Park Ave, under MD lemon law. 31 years later they're still building junk.
