Good car let down by the infotainment system

A leased vehicle chosen because there wasn't a great deal of choice.
It's comfortable, economical, drives well but has the most frustrating driver aids known to man. The parking sensors are oversensitive so useless, why couldn't they have fitted a camera? The front radar fails regularly and announces this loudly. The lane assist tries to drive you into cyclists as you pass them. The SOS system fails randomly and advises a trip to the garage but resets once you restart the engine. The software has been updated about 5 times but shows no improvement and it takes about 5 minutes for everything to load when you set off.
Most frustrating is that most of the functions are buried so far within the system that it takes many button pushes to access them, hardly safe when driving! I've still not worked out how to activate the speed-limiter safely, on our Toyota and previous Honda it only took two steering wheel presses.
I've thought of asking the dealer but they'll probably just shrug. Shame as it's nearly a good car.
