Description of the problem | I purchased my new vehicle february 2020. These are my electronic vehicle issues: 1) my battery dies when left for several hours with no electronics left on and no after market add on equipment. 2) electronic display looses touch functionality. Battery disconnect restores. 3) radio presets change to channels i would not select. I think a hacker has compromised the gps or cellular phone factory power/connect attachment. These issue stop when the vehicle looses view of the sky. Ie., metal roof garage. Attached volt meter and vehicle has severe electrical drain for normal 14. 4 to 12. 2 volts. This is variable and unrelated to heavy power draining equipment like "rear window defroster." electrical system normally drops momentarily during factory equipment initial turn on but quickly returns to 14. 4 volts. At various times while driving, system voltage will remain at 12. 2 volts with no user electrical equipment change. Possible suspect within law enforcement reports.
