Anonymous, AZ (2024 Lincoln Corsair Reserve 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)
Display screen freezes up

""The screen would simply not respond to inputs by touch could not turn on AC, heated steering wheel, etc. Had to turn car off and restart to hopefully reset it. That stopped happening eventually after a software update. Yet new problem: system functions but cannot get system to speak re text messages received. Again, when this happens (3x so far in several months, never know when, no rhyme or reason) must turn off and restart. Frustrating!""
