I went to the car wash and when I turned my car back on it stated the the Driver's Restraints system malfunction.
I own the car since brand new from dealership and never have incident. Couple weeks ago, started having issues with digital main instruments panel. Suddenly when I turn on the car in the morning the dash simply does not work. I got alert saying one the safety system is malfunctioning but not say what it was specifically. After 5 min the engine is on the main dash back to work normally, and all the alerts disappear. I have checked faulty codes and I see faulty code record to identify what would be. I would report as safety incident as the failure is Randon and sometimes happen when I park the car in the office or anytime and I have to drive with no panel instruments working back to home. I have taken the bar back to dealership for investigation and they want to charge me $180 USD just for diagnose as it's out of warranty. I also taken to independent shop but it's hard to diagnose as the vehicle is reporting no fault on their system. A car with low milage should not been happening such major failure and I'm frustrated with the risk of driving a car couple miles without knowing my speed or fuel level. Appreciate your support .
