I am reporting a safety concern involving my 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz Pro S RWD.

Twice now, my center touch screen display has failed to operate upon startup. Restarting the vehicle does not fix the problem.The problem is not able to be replicated for the dealer as it happens at random(twice over 13,000 miles).

Under the second error event, the driver display additionally did not turn on. The vehicl
