These issues seem to arise from defects in the Infotainment Screen/Software.
As a society today, we have a reliance on technology. Starting with smartphones, to personal computers and our automobiles, there isn’t a part of our daily lives that isn’t reliant on technology functioning the way it is supposed to, and getting us information. When you think about all the decisions you make every day, ask yourself how many of them are made with information or input from technology. It might startle you a bit.
Most vehicle evolution is dependent on computers and sensors today, and has been for quite some time. Updates to software are a key part of the maintenance program, as the function of many parts of our automobiles is controlled by computers. From the way the engine runs to getting info like fuel mileage, the information we receive is only as good as the hardware that is feeding the software. Loss of a backup camera, tire pressures, and a host of other information is not critical, but when the same system is telling you how fast you might be going, how accurate is that exactly? How does the vehicle really know? When was it calibrated last? Will the police officer let me go because the car said I was only going 35 MPH? We not only depend on the technology to work, but we also depend on it to be correct.
