“The car electrical system restarts itself sporadically when I’m driving. I have taken it to the Chevy dealer multiple times and they keep saying nothing is wrong. However, when I’m driving all the screens just go black without any warning and comes back on in about a minute. This issue occurred within the first month of having this car and it was brand new.”
