    Apple CarPlay

    Anonymous, NY (2023 Lincoln Corsair Standard 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)
    Display screen goes blank

    "When starting the vehicle, the screen takes a significantly different amount of time to boot up. Sometimes it's instant and other times it takes 2-3 minutes. Sometimes, the screen gets stuck on the boot up screen and the car needs to be turned off to get it to the normal display. Sometimes the back-up camera won't come on. Sometimes it displays the CORSAIR name and gets stuck there. All of which can be overcome by turning the car off then back on."

    "Car was in shop to repair collision damage. A software update was interrupted and caused the navigation to not access maps. Dealer had to reload software over the internet. That fixed the problem and I was not charged anything."
