GLS 550
Issues - June 15 Software Update MBUX 2.6.1

After performing the MBUX 2.6.1 Software Update on my 2024 GLS 450, I have the following annoying issues:

1) I now need to enter my four digit PIN every time I get in the car for my user profile. There seems to be no way to save it. This wasn't the case prior to the update.
2) I now see a rapidly recurring message that "Wireless Charging Is Not Possible", every 5 seconds. Even still, the phone is charging. This is not the "Wireless Charging Is Not Possible, Phone Too Hot" message. This message had never appeared before the update.
3) Previously, with the preference "Begin Selection From Beginning" chosen in SiriusXM, a song would play from the beginning when tuning to a different station. This no longer works after the update.

Has anyone else experienced these or other issues? Work around?

My only issue with the update is that on 50% of the roads near me, it flashes the speed limit sign in the gauge closer and the heads-up display, but showing the wrong speed limit, iike "0mph" or "-mph" or "30 mph". My dealer said every GLS in Saint Louis, MO and San Diego, CA has the same issue. Mercedes is working on it and should have an updated software by end of year.
