At the bottom of the main display, to the right of PRNDM is the terrain mode indicator, and to the right of that is a steering wheel icon that always seems to be present and never changes. Anyone know what that is about?
Changing the steering effort setting doesn't seem to change that icon that I can tell, so...???

It should display an “S” or a “C” for sport or comfort when in coresponding mode but it is small inside steering wheel icon and not good to look at while moving. I can feel the difference

Manual: page 268.

Selectable Steering (If Equipped)
Note: The steering setting defaults to
Normal if the battery is disconnected or
removed.

To change the steering feel,
toggle the switch on the
instrument panel. The first press
illuminates the selected mode, subsequent
presses will change the selected mode.
Modes:
• Normal - Default factory setting.
• Sport - Slightly higher effort required
for steering with more road force felt
through the steering wheel.
• Comfort - Slightly less effort required
for steering with less road force felt
through the steering wheel.
After selecting the desired setting, you may
feel a soft feedback bump in the steering
wheel when the changeover occurs.

Driving Aids
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with the
selectable drive modes feature, the steering
feel will change when you select a new drive
mode. You can override this automatic
selection by pressing the steering button or
switch.

** Go drive some windy roads or high speed highway cornering...pretty obvious the difference, especially on long drives and over rough roads when you feel how it handles road conditions differently.

Yes, I am fully aware of this, as I stated in my original post, if you read it. I was changing the setting but not seeing any change in the ICON on the display. I do now see the tiny S or C in the center of the wheel icon; it's so small I didn't notice it at first.
