Default Homelink garage exit - annoyance eliminated

**Back into the garage**

Maybe this has been posted and I missed it or it's so obvious it didn't need to be mentioned. I have changed my lifelong custom and now back into the garage. On start up, Homelink (tied to the GPS) pops up on the PCM and after I pull forward to exit the garage, it's still on the screen, not overridden and obscured by the reserve cam. Returning, Homelink pops up on the PCM as I near the garage, tap the screen, open the garage door, put the car in reverse, and back into the garage, using the reserve cam to assist. It's as easy as having a button on the rearview mirror.

My Dad said always back in because it is safer to pull out than back out.

Backing in is the way to go.

While this may be a solution, its a bit frustrating to spend the money for an expensive car and have to back into your garage so that Homelink functions correctly. The way my driveway is set up, it would be a total PIA to have to back in each time. Oh, and BTW, the Homelink on a base Hyundai functions perfectly regardless of how you pull in.
