Emergency call service malfunction

Bklynjoker · 03-13-2019, 07:22 PM

So I get this message today and was confused so I held the sos button and was able to call SOS n speak to them. So that communication worked.

Pull out the CARLY and scanned, these were the errors. Was able to clear them but before n after clearing it seems the weather widget isn't loading.

There was a global Internet outage today courtesy of Level 3 Communications, a Tier-1 Internet backbone provider. This affected many services like Facebook, Instagram, cellular calls etc. I've been having issues across the board with multiple carriers. I am a Senior Network Engineer for AIG, so this kind of thing is in my wheelhouse. I guarantee you this was related.

So it's still hanging around. the car is going in Wednesday so I'll update the post with the final print out on what they found & fixed

So turns out Vinyl wrap company sealed the SharkFin very poorly which allowed water to continuously let water in that area. I'm pushing real hard for them to cover under warranty n loyalty customer. My 2 Previous BMW's had crazy issues n F10 had motor rebuilt @50k. Icing on the cake I just ordered a X7 M50i for 117k.

Was it covered? Anyone know the out of pocket cost? My warranty expired in Nov and my roof is also wrapped

Sh*t cost me around 1,900 if I remember. If you have no errors or leaks your good to go. Mine was leaking and burnt out that unit.
