Typical electrical symptoms owners report
- Auto idle stop/start-stop system shuts the engine off completely at red lights or in traffic, sometimes leaving the vehicle without dashboard power for several minutes before it restarts on its own.
- Infotainment screen flickers, goes blank, or makes crackling sounds, disabling navigation, backup camera, sound, and emergency help functions.
- Vehicle powers itself on after being shut off, with owners later finding the speakers blaring or the car running unexpectedly.
- Windshield-mounted camera systems for collision mitigation, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise, and auto high beam fail, disabling those driver-assist features.
- Auto idle stop drains the battery repeatedly, leading to failed cold starts, rough idling, and battery replacements.
