There are two clocks in the new SRX. For daylight savings, I changed the time on the analog dial with no problem. The digital clock is another story. I change the time on the pop-up touchscreen with no problem. However, every time I restart the car, the time reverts back an hour. It won't hold the change to daylight savings. Any ideas?
Sorry, none. However I find it utterly mystifying that the software in the head unit is not capable of doing the DST changeover itself. Amazing in a state-of-the-art car.
Setting the Auto Time Adjust
1. Press the CONFIG button.
2. Select Time and Date Settings.
3. Highlight Auto Time Adjust.
4. Press the MENU/SELECT knob
to turn Auto Time Adjust on
or off.
I have a 2010 SRX with a digital clock problem. When I set the clock it is fine until I turn off the vehical,then restart the car, the clock will be 5-6 hours off... I called the dealer yesterday with this problem, she is checking into it if any paper work came out on this.. I will let you know when I hear anything... Dave
Hi I have a 2011 SRX and I have the same exact digital clock issue I went to "spring ahead" an hour and everytime I turn the car off and let it sit for a while then start it back up, the clock resets back an hour. Does anyone have any solutions???
I had the same problem had to go to dealer to have it reprogramed. At the same time I had Washington D.C showing up as my home state.
Dealer replaced the radio unit. Common problem in the 2010 MY
I had no problem resetting the correct time on my 2012. Perhaps you did not SAVE the new time setting (Manual 5-9 for the 2012). I did not turn on the Auto Adjust feature, but will probably do so when I next refine some of the presets.
Good luck!
I have had the dealer fix this once before with a software update. The problem has returned and I also note the radio does not stay current with identifying the song being heard over FM bands and I also have the same issue as AllGM with my home state showing up as Washington. I'm in IL. I am going to ask the dealer about replacing the entire unit.
I am sorry the problem you have with your clock and radio has returned. If you private message us with your contact information, VIN and dealership location I can continue to stay involved throughout this process. We want to make sure your concerns are answered!
I had the exact same problem with my SRX for the first time this spring; I reset the clock 5 or 6 times for daylight savings and each time I wouid start the car it reverted to the old time.( It also shows Washington DC as my home address, as others have mentioned.) When I went in for service last week I asked about it and was told it would need a software update at a cost of $124. I mean, really? For what we pay for a Cadillac, don't you think the car could save a time change to the clock without the need to sock us with an extra cost? My wife keeps raving about her Honda and on this one I have no retort to her.
I'm sorry to hear about your software problems. I had a LOT of these and even had my Nav/Radio unit replaced twice! I am assuming you must be out of warranty is they are trying to charge you $124. You must not have noticed these problems or didn't think they were problems before the warranty ran out? These are the kind of things that are driving me back to a Japanese vehicle next go around. And the fact that your wife is raving about her Honda is proof of why I'm doing it.
NJRLCAD,
Welcome to the forum! Did you have the update performed to your SRX? If so, did it resolve the matter of having your radio clock not stay with the time that was set?

Sarah,
I did not have the update done. It was not worth $124 to me. As a lifelong GM owner, I have had cars that cost half as much that never had such an issue. I will settle for the digital clock being right for only six months per year and when I am ready to bid a fond farewell, will be sure to sell/trade-in during the fall/winter when the clock is right.
Sounds like it is time for a trip to the dealer. My clock won't save the time I set it to and also the radio won't remember the Audio settings. Everything works great, it is just the settings that don't save.
If you would like our assistance while working with your dealership, please let us know. We can be contacted via private message and are more than happy to help.
