This model has a safety problem with a dangerous distraction caused by the entertainment system while backing up. When you start the car, the entertainment system begins a boot-up cycle that takes 5 to 10 seconds. During that time the driver can put the car into reverse and begin reversing. While driving in reverse, when the entertainment system finishes starting up, it will resume whatever it was doing when the car was shut off. If the radio was on, the radio will come on. If bluetooth was selected, it will send a "play" command to the attached bluetooth device. This is dangerously distracting to the driver. Worse, it is impossible to turn the entertainment system off when the car is in reverse. If driver wishes to not be dangerously distracted by the loud audio, they need to (1) stop moving, (2) shift into D, (3) tap the "acknowledge" button on the touchscreen display, (4) only then can they turn off the audio. In short, the driver is forced to choose between being distracted by unwanted audio, or to disrupt their reversing maneuver to fumble awkwardly with the controls, with the potential that they may not be as careful when they resume backing up. SOLUTION(S) 1 - reprogram the entertainment system so that it is possible to turn off the audio system while in reverse, by tapping the power knob (this is the normal way to turn it off, but it is disabled while backing up). 2 - mute audio while in reverse. 3 - reprogram the entertainment system so that it does NOT send a "play" command to bluetooth immediately upon starting up.
