Question What's that?

What's that blue spot on the passengers side, and where are the Onstar controls?

I am not sure what you mean by passenger's side, but are you talking about the side curtain airbag?

There is a bunch of buttons on top that might be Onstar Controls...

I am not sure, but it seems like the controls up top are also for bluetooth. Although it does not make sense to have two sets, but maybe they are for non-navi cars.

For OnStar, there are always colored buttons, like a red one for emergency.

Exactly. Perhaps they are going thru a German manufacturer who meets Honda's specs to save time and get curtain airbags in their cars. Normally Honda does its own extensive testing and then specifies its own airbag design to a subcontractor.

I noticed that too. I also see that grab handles in the "down" position is no longer a problem. What were they thinking for all the previous models. Even Hondas had springs.
