Consumer Description

The MMI (multimedia interface) will periodically restart during drives, including while the backup camera and other safety systems are active. The restart limits ability to use safety features such as the backup camera or sensors. The system displays a message that states the “user hasn’t been used in an extended period of time” and then the system begins the reboot. This issue first began around February 2025 and has only continued to get worse and more frequent over time. It appears to be related to software changes as nothing else about the vehicle have changed during that time.
