On the interstate, pressed the gas pedal and the vehicle did not and would not accelerate. I tried multiple times.

Speed remained the same, engine roared as if in neutral. I pulled off the interstate, cut off the vehicle for several minutes, restarted the vehicle,…

Then when i did, i wasn't able to enter the program to set the clock: it was all dark on the choices. I read both my manuals and nothing in them talked about this problem. I had several friends read the manual and they couldn't find any information to…

Apple carplay completely disables all of the vehicle's native audio warnings and alerts when it is in use. In other words, if one is listening to music, using siri, or making a phone call through carplay, none of the car's built-in safety features work as designed; the audio is silenced and carplay completely takes over the audio system. This would include blind spot monitoring, lane departure monitoring, forward…
