I am probably not the only computer geek who believes that Toyota's current problems are due to vehicle computer software, hardware or a combination of both. That is why some strange glitches with my Terrain's eletronics during a 11 hour drive from Florida to SC yesterday worry me. None of them were a big deal, but they were interesting. Not in a good way.....
1. At one point, all by itself, the audio system switched from XM (The Bridge) to AUX and started playing my flash drive. Nothing was touched. No bumps were hit. It only happened once (so far).
2. At one point I could only adjust the cruise control by two mph's. In other words, for example, I could only adjust to 69 or 71. It would not let me adjust to 70.
3. The speed of the cruise control and the speed displayed by the digital speed display were off by 1 mph. For example, the cruise control was set to 71. The external (nuvi) GPS said I was doing 71. The digital speed display said I was doing 70.
Again, not a real big deal. And I was too busy driving to diagnose and experiment. But computers should either be right on or "Houston, I think we have a problem".
Anyone else notice things like the above? I don't have NAV, DVD or steering wheel audio controls. Just the base system......
