Component or system that failed or malfunctioned: the infotainment system in my vehicle fails frequently and unpredictably. This includes both the built-in system and connected features such as apple carplay and android auto. The system is available for inspection upon request. How was safety put at risk: the failure of the infotainment system creates multiple serious safety hazards. First, it disables navigation features, which forces drivers who rely on gps directions to pull out their phones while driving—causing distraction and increasing the risk of accidents. More critically, when the infotainment system shuts down, it also disables parking cameras, blind-spot cameras, and collision warning alerts—all of which rely on the infotainment screen to function properly. This loss of driver assistance features compromises visibility, awareness of surroundings, and response to potential collisions. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes, the issue has been reproduced and acknowledged by the dealership. However, no long-term solution has been provided, and the failure continues to occur despite software updates and attempted resets. ? additionally, there are hundreds if not thousands of individual following TSB's and discussing potential remedies as the dealerships have no solution. The infotainment failure has been reported to the dealership (manufacturer's authorized service center), but the issue has not been inspected by law enforcement or insurance representatives at this time. No warning lights or messages typically appear prior to the failure. The system often shuts down suddenly while the vehicle is in use, without any forewarning.

There is no warning to this issue happening as it's very random.
