2/5/2020 i was traveling at highway speeds with moderate traffic, when the main display screen in my minivan started flashing error messages. The radio display screen was acting wacky also. The van started making a loud rapid 'click.click.click." type noise. I was trying to figure out what was happening, when i noticed that the display said "p" for park. I could not accelerate to merge out of traffic. It happened so…

Initially the vehicle would randomly turn off while driving, it was not the idle stop since it is deactivated before driving. The dealer eventually said it was the battery. Then the infotainment system stopped working, the radio was replaced after a week of being at the dealer. Now 3 weeks after repair, the infotainment system does not work. Has a noise that comes out of the speakers like sparks, has a chemical…

While driving on a trip at about 60 mph, the infotainment system stopped working, nothing was functional, including the back-up camera which i heavily rely on. This is a safety issue. In addition, once the vehicle was shut off, the infotainment system wouldn't turn off and started draining the battery. I ended up having to pull the fuse to get it to shut off, which is ver difficult to access. I have had this vehicle…

The navigation screen stays black. No backup camera, can't change the radio, use the phone or change air flow or get directions from the screen. Some days it doesn't come on at all, others it comes on while driving. You never know, very frustrating. I feel lucky if it comes on when i first start the car. This is unacceptable in a brand new vehicle.

Three hours away from home and the infotainment system went completely out. All of the safety features attached were off and we were unsure of the impact to other features. It would not turn off even after the car was off. It continued to drain the battery without anyway to turn it off.
