  1. The up or down selection won’t allow me to highlight the auto update menu selection on my 2016 Buick Encore. It only allows me to manually change the time and date. I don’t know how to get the auto update feature to unlock so I can have the time and date change automatically especially when driving through different time zones or daylight savings time changes.
