""Ever since I have owned the vehicle. I can be driving down the road and on board apps will lose their wifi connection "wifi disconnected" and then it may reset a short distance later. The display shows that wifi is available during this time. I have discussed this several times through tech support, and they blame it on the 2G used by the system.""

"The display screen in the instrument cluster and the large display screen in the middle of the dash started to change from radio to navigation, back to radio, then change the display of how the information was displayed without any imput from the driver. Each time it changed it would make a clicking sound. They said it needed a new computer and one was installed for approximately $1000. Have not had any problems since."
