Default Charge Level Settings

Before charging last time I changed the charge level in my XC40 Recharge panel from 90% to 80%.

Then I plugged in my ChargePoint level 2 home charger overnight and when I unplugged and checked the car it had charged to 90%.

The center panel indicated 90% charge level and flashing red that the car had been set for 80%.

The car drives normally and I haven't had to charge it yet.... anyone else experience this?

Yes, If I adjust while driving home, it works fine. If I pull into our garage and adjust it before exiting the car, it doesn't register until the next charge. It's quirky.

Same bug here, albeit the other way around.
I keep it at the 90% limit all the time.
If I set it to 100% the night before a planned, longer trip - the setting isn't taken into account and the car still charges only up to 90%.
Something variation of plugging it in, letting it charge for a few, unplugging, maybe changing the setting to 90% and then again to 100%, maybe singing some incantations... finally gets it to accept the new limit and charge all the way to 100%.

It's been this way since at least v2.0.

Is there a way to report to Volvo this clearly reproduceable bug?
