I think this is more of a gripe than an issue, but I noticed that if I turn on the 2nd row overhead lights with the buttons, I cannot turn them off if the "global" interior lights are on(such as with door open). I have to close the door and wait for the lights to turn off in order to push the buttons on the lights to turn them off. Does that make sense and is that normal? It goes the other way in that you cannot turn them on if the lights are on.
It's an annoyance that I have to remember to hit the button(my daughter likes her light on at night) before shutting off the Ex, or getting all the lights off before turning it on. Not easy reach from the front seat either.
I can say I'm glad the Ex has the accessory auto-off feature(after 10 minutes) because I'm sure I would have been stuck with a dead battery on a few occasions(like my wife). The only reason I knew the light was on is becuase it comes back on when I start it up again the next time I drive it.
