Has anyone had an issue with the Telescoping feature on their steering wheel. I have read that its $600 plus at the dealership, anyone have luck fixing the issue themselves.

Actually, I was going to post about my wheel as well. I'm not having an issue with the "telescoping" (haven't tried moving it in or out), but it is moving up when I leave the car, and then not coming back down when I enter and turn it on. I have disabled the setting for now.

Sounds like a faulty steering wheel tilt sensor. When you start the vehicle, there is a sequence of checks that happen. If one of the sensors goes bad or doesn't respond during the sequence, it could be faulty. Does your seat return to position and not the steering wheel? Or vice versa?

If you are referring to me all other functions work properly.
