Default Touchscreen issue

Just turned over 10,000 miles today and my touchscreen doesn’t seem to be working. I shut the car off and restarted it but no change. I can see the icons but not able to touch activate them.
Any workarounds?

Why is there a picture of your dash and not your touch screen infotainment?

There are no work arounds, just take it to the dealer. It's under warranty.

He said over not at. Besides he could have shown a picture of his Engine and it still wouldn't have anything to do with the problem. Should have shown a video post (link - can't post videos directly here unfortunately).


Regardless, even if someone has seen before, the answer, more importantly, the remedy is at your dealership. But thanks for letting all of us know what may be in our future when we get to 10K.

Before I took it to the dealership, I would give the old disconnect the battery trick a try. I just had a similar issue with the main display not showing the engine morph into the car when you first get in and disconnecting the battery took care of it. Good luck.

Good answer, good answer. But remember the discussions about loss of battery power - window indexing, .... I'd still take it to the dealership for warranty coverage and documentation.

Started it today, everything works fine. Maybe it just needed some downtime.
I just showed the odometer because of the 10,000 mark.
Love this car!

Yep had to re-index the windows. No biggie.

I've sometimes have miscellaneous items get out of sync if I hit the start button to just get power on in ACC mode. It takes a start, stop, and restart to get everything back in order -especially the programmed driver seat position. Again, although not reported recently since the OTA update, there are never ending electrical gremlins running throughout.
