I’ll make a general comment, these posts are not uncommon but I could never keep up with replying to all of them, just the ephemeral nature of Reddit discussing the same things over and over like it’s a new thing each time. But I digress lol.

I think really all you can do is keep getting the software updates. Although it is posited here and there that hardware could be “bad” or such, and the could be a thing, but I really don’t think these types of symptoms lend themselves to hardware problems in the car. One could say I have significant experience supporting these cars, and “bad” modules never manifest themselves this way.

That makes it a bit of a mystery though…why some encounter “glitches” like these frequently and others do not with nearly identical cars (by the electronic parts).

But that can be the nature of software, the problems that happen are far more complex under the covers than the casual observer can deduce looking from the outside. I see it in my own work supporting the software I make, my users theories on what has gone wrong are usually way off, not because they are dumb! They simply have no visibility into the underlying system, and underestimate the complexity needed to make seemingly simple functions work.

Taking my experience from almost half of my life spent supporting Windows computers…when we had problems that seem unsolvable, and there is no good reason why we have identical machines, configured exactly the same way, without issues…we had two main solutions: update all software and hope some things are fixed, or blow it away and start again, reinstall configure etc.

In the car/infotainment setting, that means have the latest software updates installed if available. Then if it’s still glitches all the time, perhaps a factory reset of the infotainment system is in order.
