The mmi system crashes and reboots after about 90 seconds. This affects all parking and collision sensors.
Mmi continously shuts off then back on automatically for the duration of my drives. Since it is random, it has occured while on the highway where my collision warning does not intervene because the mmi is off. It puts me and others at risk since without warning it shuts off and takes 20-30sec to come back on but only for a few mins until it happens again. I have called the Audi experience who told me to go to the dealer; others I know with the same system have done so to no resolve. I do not want to spend $ on an update that will not resolve the problem. This started on 7/14/25 and without warning, the mmi screen turns off. My fear is that it coincidentally happens at a time when it may be needed and cause a wreck or worse fatal.
While driving, including backing up with the camera, the computer restarts itself. Navigation, warnings, and backup camera all restart for about 30 seconds. It has happened while depending on the backup camera. Just goes black then restarts.
Over the last 2 weeks, the entire mmi system stops working, the screen goes black, and the system reboots. It happened once when I was backing out of a parking spot and the alerts stopped working. A second time when I was pulling into a spot and the screen went black as well. This is a major safety-related flaw!.
Mmi (infotainment system) shuts down periodically while vehicle is being driven or is idling in park. Radio, navigation, etc. , are affected. Also, the vehicles' collision warning system shuts down at the same time. Generally, the system will reboot itself within a few minutes. There is no real pattern to this issue as it may occur several times during a short trip in the car. The next day it may not happen at all. I contacted Audi dealer who stated they are not familiar with this issue and knew of no fixes.
Mmi restarting randomly while idling or running and importantly while reversing restart causing the screen blank imposing safety concerns to the driver.
