It is not an ad, it is a bug. There is a fix being included in an upcoming OTA, not sure which or timing but it is coming
Must be the same bug that causes Sirius XM to non-stop spam call my cell and send crap through snail mail to my house. I hope I don’t also get this bug showing up in my car now that my free trial I never used once ran out this morning.

Why do any auto mfg do business with Sirius anymore? It’s so stupidly expensive for less content and quality than you get with any number of streaming apps that are also built into vehicles/CarPlay/AA. I get some people want it and that’s fine but no reason to include on every single vehicle when people use cell phones to do music streaming and it’s also available as a phone app. Must have been a really long contract term or something…

They still push built in factory navigation even though many/most people use their phones. ?‍♂
Just as an FYI regarding the cost of Sirius/XM, all it takes is a phone call threatening cancelation and they will drop their price. It does provide coverage in areas with poor/no cell service where streaming would be difficult/impossible.
