    Hi All, Long-time viewer, first-time posting! I just got a 2017 CX-5 GT with the Premium Package and was curious to know of those of you that have the Bose system in your CX-5 if you turn the Bose Centerpoint option on or leave it off?

    I have a 2016 CX5 Grand Touring and I live in central PA. When the temperature drops below freezing overnight (which it does most of the time in winter here), the infotainment system keeps rebooting multiple times until the cabin warms up.
