What owners say
I am unable to manually turn on my lights, the vehicle stays on ‘automatic lights’. Headlight function remains normal within the automated functions, however, pursuing to Florida Statute 316.217 manual headlight control is necessary to turn on my headlights. The windshield wipers are an operation which does not take place unless the windshield wipers traveling at such speed, automated light control turns them on automatically. The cause of this is directly related to the software in the entertainment system that manually locks out the driver from addressing and turning on their own headlights.
Anytime the headlights are turned on, the center console Infotainment system starts scrolling through random menus and initiating button presses on any option available in the menu it is on. It also becomes completely unresponsive to human button presses while this happens. This becomes a huge safety issue as any vehicle system that is available from a button press can be turned on or off randomly. This problem is repeatable and happens every time the headlights are on.
I turned on the car and backed out of my driveway and my infotainment and gauge cluster screens both went black. I pulled over to the side of the road because I could not see what my speed was and I couldn’t see what gear I was in. I restarted the car multiple times and it finally turned back on. I also realized later that I wouldn’t be able to turn on my headlights if it was dark outside. This is very unsafe and should be fixed. I do not believe I am the only one with this issue as I have seen many many others.
While driving, both screens went completely black. Without the screens I was not able to monitor speed, no access to headlights and no access to adjust one pedal driving mode. All audio stopped as well. At first I didn’t know if I lost power to the entire vehicle, which distracted me from driving. Once I got my bearings, quickly accessed that the vehicle did not lose power, I pulled over. No warning lights or messages prior to this incident. No warning at all. It took about 10 minutes before both screens came back on. Being unable to monitor vehicle status and unable to see speed and no access to multiple options without the screen, put my safety at risk and other people around me at risk. I have not taken it in for any inspection at this time. This just happened yesterday.
