With cars these days you do have to become acustomed. They all do many things well but also do it in their own way. This is so even among those who have Qualcomm inside and Android Automotive. It's a bit of a Catch 22, providing a solution that's tailorable and also one that saves OEMs from having to deal with the nitty gritty. Some do do customization better than others. I'd expect this to only get better on key aspects as regulation (ie better std ways) gets more entrenched.

"Yanking the wheel" Yup. Rented a spanking new Kia SUV in Germany. The thing would try to steer for me -- sometimes but not always. But, even when it randomly decides to initiate the steering input into a turn, it would never unwind the input out of the turn. I'd have to do it. Random, half-assed nonsense. Worst is in a construction zone on an autobahn where the methodical Germans would narrow to 2 lanes of exactly 2.1 metres. This demands some concentration to stay in lane when there are big wide truck in the other lane. Here I am in the fast (left) lane, biased by intention slightly to the left in order to pass big trucks in the right, slow lane. Well, ADAS would yank at the wheel and try to push me back to the right. If I do not fight it, I would end up side-swiping the truck. Utter nonsense. This is why Porsche designs the interface in their latest model to minimize to 2 the number of button pushes and/or screen touches required to disable ALL driving assists. Not against ADAS as such. But it needs to be done right.
