Anyone know how to change XM stations from the steering wheel? It’s very annoying, and kind of dangerous, to have to go through the main interface, look through menus and look down to select a station.

Unfortunately, you can't.
 
It would be nice to be able to use the steering wheel buttons to step through my list of "favorites" radio stations instead of going through EVERY station on the dial.
 
Thanks for the responses. Sounds like I’m not the only one

It would be nice to add a next favorite function to the next/previous song buttons on the steering wheel. Long press or double tap would go to the next/previous favorite.
 
My “favorites “ used to show up all along the right side of the main screen. They no longer do. Other than taping on the Star to fill it in solid, is there anything else that you need to do ?
 
Apologies to all if I'm missing something here but my steering wheel button don't change my stations for XM. They only move back and forth in the current song. I have to use the controls on the top screen to change the station. Is there a way to scroll XM stations using the steering wheel? It seems more intuitive to have the wheel change the station and the glass screen move within the song.

This definitely needs to be addressed in a future update for Air and Gravity. It's definitely a nuisance not to be able to use the steering control buttons to click through your saved favorite channels on SiriusXM (or even the radio)...something I've been able to do in every previous car I've owned.
 
Agree. I have complained about the past and suggested that a long press on the forward/back buttons would switch stations.
 
Two weeks in and have been wondering if easily changing the SiriusXM channels was possible, but doesn't look like it is. At least not yet. A bit of a bummer, as it was easy to do via the steering wheel controls on the 2015 Nissan Altima I switched from. I much prefer the ride, styling, acceleration, handling, etc of the Air though! I'll just be less of a channel changer for now.
