Hello all,
New Orbit user and new owner of a 2023 C40 Recharge.
I will try to be brief. There are 3 things I am trying to resolve with my vehicle.
1) Noise from behind upper dashboard area on passenger side. I can best describe the sound as a muffled motorboat or "flub flub flub" sound. It randomly occurs when starting vehicle and last 15-30 seconds and then subsides.
2) Tailgate actuators that will not open the tailgate unless I offer an initial upward push. They travel the rest of the way with no problem.
Is the torque on these actuators something that is adjustable in Orbit?
3) Constant issues with media center. Pandora will crash regularly. Sound settings do not "stick' in memory. I have to hold center button on screen to restart the media center.
I have followed the procedure to completely reset the media center. It works for a week and then it doesn't. I this a hardware failure, known bugs or a mix?
Other than these 3 things I am having a wonderful time with the vehicle and I can see myself slipping into another one of these in the future. I still have warranty coverage so if there are recommended steps I should take at the dealer, I can. I have never been to my local dealer. I bought this car out-of-state.
Thanks for taking the time to read my first post!
