What owners wrote

“The Driver Attention Warning alarms every few minutes in highway driving. The loud ringing bell and the dashboard display are very distracting and a hazard in their own right.”
Filed Oct 6, 2025

“The backup camera is not working and theres a glitch on the screen when on reverse gear. In addition the adaptive cruise control is not working 8-9 out of ten times.”
Filed Sep 20, 2025

“Heads up display and gauge cluster will intermittently flicker and/or reboot. When gauge cluster comes back on it will sometimes have all warning lights stay on. Have had it happen once where gauge cluster rebooted and then flashed "No Signal" while repeatedly rebooting. Both HUD and Gauge cluster do shut off together sometimes so I am no longer able to see my speed when that does happen”

“My dashboard will black out, my HUD display will flicker or just go out. All of my indicator lights for vehicle issues all light up and stay lit up.”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 0 of 47 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
