The contact owns a 2026 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the infotainment system screen occasionally turned black or would freeze, which prevented the driver from having access to systems or safety features that could only be engaged through the infotainment system. Additionally, the contact stated that the rearview camera image was black due to the failure. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60-65 MPH, the contact heard a male voice coming from the infotainment system. The contact realized that a voicemail message that a customer had left to the contact several weeks prior was playing. The contact stated that the failures occurred intermittently but had become more persistent. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that a software update for the infotainment system was needed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000.
