Vehicle macro recording and playback system able to operate across subsystem boundaries

A method for implementing configurable macros within motor vehicles comprising:

• detecting a macro execution event;
• determining a macro stored within a data store associated with the macro execution event, wherein the determined macro comprises a plurality of actions, wherein each action is associated with controlling an adjustable setting of a vehicle subsystem, wherein at least a portion of the actions are user configured actions established in accordance with user defined settings;
• and
• initiating the macro, which results in each of the actions being performed, which results in the vehicle subsystems being adjusted in accordance with the associated actions, wherein said plurality of action associated the macro are able to control settings of a plurality of different vehicle subsystems.
