Heated Steering Wheel
Every time I start the car, the steering wheel heat comes on as well.
I have looked thru the settings menu and cannot find anything that would default to the off mode.
Am I missing something

There is a setting for this, but it's not in the DIC (the cluster in front of the driver, it's in the infotainment settings. Under Vehicle Personalization. Page 97-98 of the 2021 owners manual: "Auto Heated Seats" (which also controls the steering wheel).

Settings > Vehicle > Climate and Air Quality > Auto Heated Seats > On/Off.
There is also a setting for Auto Cooled Seats (which are actually ventilated, not cooled).
This setting automatically turns on
and regulates the heated seats
when the cabin temperature is cool.
The auto heated seats can be
turned off by using the heated seat
buttons on the center stack
If equipped with Auto Heated
Steering Wheel, this feature will turn
on when the Auto Heated Seats
turn on.
