Did we just recently get an over the air software update?? I have never had any glitches with the software in my Bolt. Then on Thursday, The screen froze while backing up and left the rear camera on the whole time. While it was both entertaining and distracting to watch the road moving away from me as I drove forward, I no longer had any of the usual climate/radio/infotainment controls.
I tried shutting the car off and back on again, but it didn't work. When I shut the car down to go to lunch, everything turned off except the parking brake light stayed illuminated. Strange, but I figured the battery saving relay would kick in and kill it eventually. I was right. 45 minutes later all was black.
The car booted up just fine, but I swear I now have a new back up camera display. It now shows the camera view, a ridiculous black bar on the left with the image of a camera lens in it, and now the guidelines toggle switch at the bottom of the screen. Prior to Thursday, when I backed up, the entire display was nothing but camera view and if I wanted the guidelines on, or off, I had to go into settings to do that.
I wish I could have my old display back. In addition, it hasn't frozen up again since, but it seems to stumble and threaten to freeze up whenever I go into reverse. I'm just curious, did GM change my software? How can I tell? Anybody else notice this?
