I've seen other people post these issues separately off-and-on over the last few months, but several of them hit my car last Friday:
- My backup camera no longer works, the screen turns black. No amount of shifting / waiting solves it.
- The GPS location of the car no longer updates, it thinks it's sitting in my driveway. Because of this, the street speed limit / cruise control / AutoPilot are not functioning.
- The day/night auto screen brightness no longer works automatically. I have to manually switch it between day and night, after setting it correctly for a specific driving session I set it back to Auto.
I've tried the soft reboot (brake/buttons) and the hard reboot (power off 3+ mins) process several times, neither one fixed it. However, with a soft reboot the car correctly detects which day/night mode the screen should be in immediately after the reboot.
The two things I did to the car on the Friday that this started happening:
- I inserted a FAT32 formatted 64GB USB 3.0 stick to enable dash cam. I had a USB 2.0 stick before that, the car complained about write speed (even though the actual dash / sentry functionality worked fine) so I upgraded.
- I installed my front/rear license plates from the DMV.
I'm a 20+ year software engineer / IT project manager, so the idea of driving a fast computer with a few quirks isn't a big problem. But at some point these types of problems on a new, expensive car will switch from amusing to embarrassing.
I have a service appointment scheduled for next Tuesday.
Sharing all of this ^^^ in case anyone else is experiencing the same issue.
