This could be an ICCU failure, where the high voltage battery doesn’t properly charge the 12V. I have an EV model that is known to have this issue (luckily I haven’t had it happen). It can be caused by either hardware or software faults. Still pathetic though lol
Edit: the cyber truck apparently doesn’t have a 12V but rather a 48V system. I’m not sure if this same issue or a similar one is happening, or something else entirely.
Depends on the car brand. Some kept their dependance on software quite low like Mazda. Some decided to take a risk with the software gods and tie their entire functionality to it while simultaneously laying off good workers and rehiring the lowest bidder.
The worst bug I had on my car had the onboard computer not starting, and the screen remaining black. It meant I had: no GPS, no music, no backup camera, and no parking sensor.
But apart from that, the car was driving perfectly normal, and all the other features were working as expected.
Not that common, I think most places try to flash the ECU and if that doesn’t work they chuck it. I would not be surprised if a lot of software bugs get resolved as a bad ECU.
Lmao, imagine a car not working because of a software bug. That’s just pathetic.

I’d be shocked if anyone who works in IT would buy one. Already full up on troubleshooting.
That’s… Basically every car made in the last 15 years?

My car has a 3 finger salute to force reboot the infotainment system.
Teslas also have a slaute to acess the infotainment system, except it uses the entire hand and arm
💀
Oh apparently I have something similar (5s press on the bottom left), it might have worked
My 2017 mini hasn’t had anything, even resembling that?
It’s got an ECU, you’re 1 computer bug away from being stranded.
the thing is that most manufacturers make sure software bugs are rare in cars. i never experienced an ecu bug before.
My car is built in 2023 (2016 model) and has none of those “features”. The most high tech thing is a USB port.
Ah, so no ECU? No RFID engine interlock? No braking assist or lane keep?
I highly doubt it. Post your model. You’re 1 software bug away from a dead car.
Proton Saga 1.3, good luck.
Let’s see here.
ECU - that has a bug and your dead in the water
Push to start - bug in that system, and you’re stuck.
Hill Hold - have a software glitch there and your brake is jammed on.
Sorry bub, there are multiple system on your car where a software glitch will stop it from driving.
You might be right but how common are those? Ive yet to have a car breakdown over an ECU bug/malfunction but its a small sample size.

Yes and?
