I am not surprised to see almost 100% of respondents making this mistake when first getting the car. The operation runs counter to every other car I've ever driven! And when was the last time you RTFM about how to operate your turn signal. 
Of course it only takes a week of screwing up to figure out that you need to RTFM or at least this board.

It took me 2 wrong-cancelling signals to learn that you should press the flashing signal again to cancel it. Not that bad anyhow. I actually prefer this new signal over traditional way. The magazine people who wrote against this new signal mechanism, must reconsider it with open mind.

I also like this new feature. Noticed it the first time I test drove the car. Since then, no problem with it at all.

It's really funny the wife does not like to drive my car because of the turn signals, I've had it for almost a year and she hasn't figured them out yet. lol , more behind the wheel time for me.

I would like for it to signal five times however. That what it takes to change a lane on a busy freeway.
