Yep, had this happen only once. Lost the numbers and color ring on the tach. Everything went back to normal the next day and haven’t had the problem since. I also thought it was in mid-update, and thankfully didn’t have to take it in to the dealer for a diagnostic. Other than that one glitch the...
I’ve had the rear hatch ajar warning 2 or 3 times, mostly after first getting the BS. Coming from a power liftgate to a manual took some practice to get the proper closing force. Agree with other posters here on avenues to pursue.
Yeah, this is the kind of thing I miss from my previous Hyundai Tucson. Not only could I change the blink count (3, 5 or 7), but I could also turn off the wireless charger completely so that the phone would not charge even if placed on the pad. Lots more customization options (ambient lighting...

I had something similar, a very high pitched noise coming from the instrument display. Solved it by turning down the instrument display illumination one notch using the controls near the headlight switch. Keeping the digital display at max illumination was causing the whine.
Some things I like on my 2025 Badlands:
Full digital dash with customizable gauges.
Wireless SYNC 4 versus SYNC 3.
Larger center screen allows for better split screen functionality with bigger viewable areas.
New MPC engines (I've read the 2.0 still has the full 250 HP as the gas particulate...
