Why don't we have the volume gesture control on the steering wheel :(

I was actually excited to try this feature. Come to find out the SI doesn't have it.

We have the same buttons and display audio as the ex-t but they left out this feature. It doesn't make sense. Or maybe the button on the wheel just looks the same but is missing something internally and Honda didn't think they could afford to put in at our price point.

I heard that during enthusiastic driving, some people were dragging part of their hand across the sensor and ended up blasting the radio inadvertently.

The Si isn't alone - the slide function was disabled for the hatchback as well.

Many people didn't like it for whatever reason.

They should have left it an option in the display audio though. I swear they had to have cheapened out somewhere to save costs. Maybe there is a sensor behind the volume slider that is missing. Oh well.
