I find it very interesting that even though I do NOT and never did have a Sirius subscription in my car, I received a message on the in-car display screen at 0625 hrs 2 days in a row last week informing me that the Sirius had been updated.
Why would something that has been dormant and unused the entire time I have owned the car suddenly received an update?
Admittedly, I am not the original owner, but I’ve had it for just under 2 years. I didn’t even activate the “free trial” offered through the dealership, and it hasn’t “updated” before.
That is interesting. You have to wonder how much your car is spying on you…and reporting on you.
Just a guess. Your car is new enough to receive over the air updates whether you subscribe or not. I have a lifetime subscription to Sirius/XM when I purchased my car in 2009. I would get frequent over the air updates and had to to logon to to reactivate my subscription during the early days of the car ownership. I haven't had to do anything in the last 10 years.
