I've had the 3.6 update for several weeks now. The other day, my a/c turned on full blast by itself. This happened twice. Anyone experience this?
 
Does the climate power state "toggle" all by itself with each car start? That is, without you touching the climate while you do this, does it come on by itself when you start the the 1st time, stay off when start the car the 2nd time, come on when you start the car the 3rd time, etc.?

If so, I have seen the same behavior. My FFE seems to fall into this climate power toggling behavior every few weeks. To fix it, I pull out and reinsert the MFT fuse (to reboot the computer running the whole pile of crapware) and it goes back to normal for a while again.

Strangely, it never did this for the first several months I owned the car. I have not updated the MFT 3.1 yet (original with the car).

I think it's time to bite the bullet on this update deal. It may fix your problem. (On the other hand, we will all be sympathetic if your FFE is "bouldered".) (I don't use "bricked" because that belongs to phones. And since the car is larger, it only makes sense that it would be "bouldered.")
 
It turns on the A/C full blast randomly while driving, without me touching anything. It has happened 4 times now.
