I recently purchased and installed a Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 4.0 (BlE) OBD2 Fault Code Reader OBDII Code Scanner Car Check Engine Light iOS iPhone iPad/Android Compatible ELM327 Adapter on my 2017 Bolt EV. I downloaded and installed the recommend PIDs on Pixel 3 and the Torque Pro appeared to be working. This afternoon as we were pulling back from my garage my wife, while driving, notice a person walking behind us and the Rear Cross Traffic Alert did not alarm. Later she notice that the Lane Keep assist was also not working. We disconnected the Pixel 3 from the car and the problems continued. We then removed the OBD2 reader and the Lane Keep assist immediately returned to operation.

I've lost confidence on this unit and I'm returning it to Amazon.

Has any one experience any similar problems with other OBD adapters?
