The message went away after a couple of seconds and...what do you know, the time adjusted for the new time zone!
On the return, as we crossed back into our original time zone, I watched the clock and it did not adjust. After about 50 miles into the new time zone, I went to the time settings screen, unchecked the auto adjust option, closed the screen, then went back into the time settings screen and re-checked the auto adjust option and...just as before, the above message briefly appeared and the time adjusted.
So, it appears as if the system is not automatically checking for a time zone change unless you initiate it by checking the auto adjust option (it having been previously unchecked).
Asked the 'genius' at our dealership about it and he didn't have a clue.

That's the way it as working for me last fall. The genius at our dealership told me that the way it is supposed to work. I don't think so.
