I had both recalls done 2 weeks ago, just in case this is relevant.

While driving one night, the weirdest thing happened:

- Compass reset
- Nav Screen went black and re-booted.(audio stayed on)
- Nav Screen went black and re-booted. (Audio cut-out)
- Just the blue needle (Speedometer only), dropped to 20MPH and the light went out.

This all happened while cruising on the freeway at 50 - 60MPH. It happened 4 times, within a 30 minute drive. It's been a few days, and I haven't been able to replicate the problem. Doesn't seem like a alternator. I am trying to find time to take it into the dealership, and I hope CPO warranty covers this.


Resolution:

Battery Leads were not tightened all the way.

this happened to me before when I had a dead/faulty battery. I thought it was the voltage regulator in the alternator, but it was just the battery that got shorted from my headlight mount that was not grounded properly.

battery terminals fastened all the way?

I checked my battery and the leads are attached properly. And I think my battery has been replaced (curr mil: 56K)

sounds like a grounding issue possibly

I have an appointment next week to sort it out. Hopefully they'll find a cause for it.

Update:

Rich was right. The tech found that whoever did the recall, did not tighten the battery leads, so bumps caused power loss. I only checked if it was attached,

They also found, that the guys at Magnessun over-filled my coolant tank causing a coolant leak in the expansion tank. This would make it the 4th issue found as a result of this recall work.
