Car computer system spontaneously crashes every few minutes. Proximity sensors, rear camera, and drive mode selector (normal, eco, eco+) stop working creating a potential driving hazard. After several crashes, the system requires a hard reboot. If a phone is connected (via bluetooth or USB cable), the handsfree car-link also stops working.
