Hey Car Guys

[CMRivdogs]

We had something happen a bit weird this evening. Our vehicle is a 2025 Tuscan Hybrid, just shy of 12 thousand miles.

Heading out to dinner this evening, the speed,tach, gas, etc display started “flickering” basically turning off then on. The screen would occasionally go black then come back on. After about 7 miles or so we received a big NO SIGNAL message on the screen. 

Evidently there is a way to set the map/other “electronics” on the other display screen, but not the “important” one.

What was weird, after dinner when we went back to the car, it looked like the main display was working. No problem on our 15 minute ride home.  I’ll be checking in with the dealer in the morning to try to schedule an appointment since I saw some mentions of a possible recall while researching during our meal.

Anyone have any idea what may be happening?

1. love the thread idea. 

2. with electronics, often the best answer is just restart the gizmo.  Which seems like a dumb tech support type answer but yeah, often the reset is the answer.  

 

Now, to the real stuff:  when i retire back to Michigan and get a pole barn with space... who wants to come help me retromod a Triumph TR6? 

Before I do that though, I will want to completely solar power the pole barn so that's the project after building or buying the pole barn.

I had a Subaru that did a similar thing maybe twice in 10 yrs  - all the electronics crashed. Just had to restart the car. Of course today, if your car is sitting at your house connected to your wifi, or if it has its own cellular modem, it might be updating SW and either introducing new bugs or squashing old ones on any given day and you might never know.

Restarting the vehicle was my first thought, a bit like a soft reboot. Maybe I didn’t wait long enough on my first attempts.

We were in the restaurant about 45 minutes. When we restarted the car all systems were back on. Will be contacting the dealership for an appointment today.
