TLR (or BLUF, for the military folks): Car driving software crashed while driving. Problem appears to have resolved itself after parking, situation developing.
Had a weird thing happen last night while driving in town. I was almost empty (6 miles left), and driving slow, when my stability control suddenly showed it was disabled. Then a bunch of other indicators went off, including traction control, ABS, and regenerative braking. The car continued to drive, however when I removed my foot from the pedal it felt as if I were maintaining speed, almost like I was in cruise control. Then the speedometer 'blue bar' started blinking, as well as the speedometer number. I didn't notice if anything else was blinking as I was a little concerned my car would take off and ram someone, and I was distracted by every idiot light on the dash being on at the same time.
I called in, and the tech confirmed he was seeing what I was seeing, but had no explanation for it. I parked and he continued to work on the car. He called about fifteen minutes later and said most of the indications had cleared when I put it in park.
I was able to drive it home with no further indicators and have driven it today with no indicators, but they're going to come out and look at it tomorrow. They now suspect the ABS module went bad, and took out all these other systems with it. Freaky.
