Default Problem with Dash Display

Today I go to start my car (2015 Z51 Coupe A8), and the DIC turns on showing pretty much every warning light there is lit up (tire pressure, oil pressure, parking brake on, etc.). I tried turning the parking brake off and it didn't respond, I tried changing driving modes and it didn't respond, it was just totally frozen. Then, OnStar randomly turned on saying I need to set up my account, then turned off. I turned off the car and started it back up and everything was fine after about 5 seconds. Anybody ever experience anything similar? I tried searching and found lots of instances of blank DIC screens, but nothing like this.

This car has just over 500 miles on it and has already spent a week at the dealer being serviced for a "service airbag" message, which turned out to be a pinched wire behind the dash.

Sounds like another pinched wire. Possibly when the dealer put everything back together.

The system is basically a computer, shutting down and restarting rebooted it. You should be fine.
