Anyone ever experience your drive mode randomly switching while driving? I was on the highway and had to adjust my side mirrors and as soon as I finished with the mirror buttons on the door I noticed my drive modes cycling on the driver screen, I saw Off-Road and then Rock Crawl and I freaked out seeing as my hand was no where near the mode selector, so I quickly selected Sport mode with the mode selector. I wonder if there is a sensitivity issue, like stick drift in an accelerometer. I swear I saw this once before and just thought maybe I'd bumped the selector.

Just curious if anyone else has see this.

I remember that the RR I drove at the Raptor Assault had a bit of ghost to it. Turned out someone on the trip before us had spilled soda on the selector and it was sticking at times.

This seems to be happening to many folks, including myself. Appears to be some type of software glitch.

Someone needs to add a Ghost mode - all lights go dark, no brake lights, engine goes whisper quiet.

Mine "tried" to switch to Baja mode (it can't while doing 48mph). With the fish eye camera lens it looked like the vehicles coming at me were going to hit me head on. 🫣
