Consumer Description

I was driving home at around midnight on the interstate, when my radio stopped working and digital dash screen just turned off. The radio screen said something like network communication lost (I was going 75 so I couldn’t completely read what it said), and the dash where my tachometer and speed usually are, was off; the only information about the car I had was gas level and general engine temperature, so physical gauges or the fuel economy indicator were not affected. All headlights, climate, and engine or cruise control were not affected. It rebooted after about 10 seconds, as if the car was just started up, and everything was back to normal. I was coming from a work event, so I had a coworker with me and he noticed this was occurring, unsettling to be a passenger and all necessary information about the vehicle on an interstate was gone. The vehicle did have a recall to address crackle noise in the speakers, which was a symptom of the MOST bus failure. But since then, the crackle hasn’t disappeared, the backup camera has failed on occasion, and now this, just once in ~15000 miles, all link through the same MOST bus. Will be taking to the dealer again ASAP to see if they can resolve the issue for good, but it seems unacceptable that an infotainment failure could also affect the dashboard if I am understanding it.
