Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I purchased my new vehicle february 2020. These are my electronic vehicle issues: 1) my battery dies when left for several hours with no electronics left on and no after market add on equipment. 2) electronic display looses touch functionality. Battery disconnect restores. 3) radio presets change to channels I would not select. I think a hacker has compromised the GPS or cellular phone factory power/connect attachment. These issue stop when the vehicle looses view of the sky. Ie., metal roof garage. Attached volt meter and vehicle has severe electrical drain for normal 14.4 to 12.2 volts. …”

It was less frequent a year ago, but now is more frequent. It was noted first while the car was under warranty, but because it was not too frequent, I did not take it to the dealer.”

Asked the dealer about issue since I believe it’s a safety concern and my car is still under warranty for 80,000. Since my car is almost to the miles they want me to pay to check it.”
