Liftgate/hatch buttons inop if left open for a few hours.

We park in our garage and are able to leave the rear hatch open overnight. What we found is even after a few hours, the hatch cannot be closed electronically via the buttons, it has to be manually closed. Even restarting the vehicle does not restore button functionality, so you have to get back out of the vehicle and manually close the hatch. Kind of a dumb thing that couldn't even be resolved by restarting the damn vehicle. What up with that?

Just noticed recall 44D in my Chrysler App

It refers to the Hybrid Control Module Software. I'm going to ignore it for now. Last time I took my vehicle in for a clunk noise they had for 2 weeks to finally find the lower strut mount was bad.

[NC] [SFH] Why would homeowners be asked to vote at the Annual Meetings when CCR&s state the Declarant appoints Board members?

This is a very tricky read but the key take away is "whichever occurs later."

The Board of Directors shall initially consist of three (3) members appointed by the Declarant and in subsequent years may be increased to such number as the Board of Directors deem appropriate. Beginning with the first annual meeting of the Association, the Declarant shall appoint one Director for a term of one year and two Directors for a term of two years, and thereafter shall appoint the Director(s) for two year terms at each annual meeting until January 1, 2031. After January 1, 2031, the Members shall elect upon majority vote the Directors for two-year terms at each annual meeting. The Directors selected by the Declarant need not be Members of the Association.

The Class B Member shall be the Declarant, its successors and assigns. The Class B Member shall have special voting rights in the Association by which it shall be entitled to the same number of votes as are cumulatively held by the Class A Members, plus one. Said Class B voting rights shall terminate on the happening of either of the following events, whichever occurs later: (i) the date it has conveyed at least ninety percent (90%) of the maximum number of Lots and Dwelling Units in the Property (as now constituted or added as set forth in Article II of the Declaration); or (ii) January 1, 2031.

What would you do? HOA won't allow room addition.

My HOA is not allowing me to add a room addition to extend the side of my home, it's a single family residence. The addition would meet city code and remain well within setback requirements. Most of the addition would be hidden from street view and situated behind my existing 3rd car garage. My property does have a pond view with other neighbors having the same around the pond looking back. The HOA doesn't seem too particular when it comes to modifications in the back of said properties judging by the appearance of others, but nothing in our HOA documents says we cannot expand the footprint and add a room addition. We plan to construct it tastefully and match the colors, materials, and try our best to keep the design flow. My neighbors do not have an issue. The HOA claim is that the addition would be outside the original developers concept (whatever that means as if they have some clue what the original builders were thinking), etc and therefore not permissible. All we want is to add living space inside the home for family accommodations. Is this an HOA overreach of their authority? I think so. Ironically, their decision came well after the time allotment specified the HOA declarations. The declarations state they have 45 days to decide or all ARB requirements are deemed "waived." Well, they took longer. Only thing is, the board members say it was a clerical error that we weren't notified within the timeframe and the fault was with the management company for not handing down the ARB decision to me before the deadline. On paper, our denial decision from the management company is dated 3 days past the deadline. I know it's a technicality but these are their rules in the CC&R. So, what would you do, build anyway or take their denial to arbitration? Those are my choices if I don't want to sell.

Apparently Spectrum doesn't know about this option in Android security settings. To create a personal Sim card lock one needs to know the default 4 digit code provided with the Sim. Never had an issue about this with other carriers in the past. Anybody?

Considering switching and I hear many on Spectrum Mobile say their service uses Verizon tower and so their service will be just as reliable as those on Verizon Mobile accounts. I've had Verizon's prepaid service in the past and for $35 per month, I thought was a good deal--it was horrible. The problem, data prioritization. I was deprioritized left and right without ever exceeding my data allotment. Rarely did my data work decently. I left them after a few months to US Mobile (I believe they offer qci7).

I had post paid plans with Verizon for years with no issues, but their prepaid plan absolutely sucked for me. My question is this, does Verizon depriorize Spectrum Mobile customers just as bad as I experienced with their prepaid plan? This isn't about what happens after you exceed your data, it's about daily prioritization during times of congestion. How does Spectrum compare? Is it qci7(best), qci8, qci9(worst). Who knows?
