An unpublished feature is that Nissan is currently using the SiriusXM telematic OTA SW updates to the Radio as a test. I don't know the full extent of the OTA updates, but I have seen that Apple CarPlay has been updated on my car. Toyota GM Honda and FCA use SiriusXM as well, and do OTA updates for their head units OTA with SiriusXM. The service does have the ability to do System updates, and FCA and GM are testing System updates. I do not believe that vehicle system SW updates are being pushed for Nissan yet.
