Default Drive system error not going away.

This popped up today and it's not going away. I restarted the car and it's still there. Any tips on how to clear it?

I waited a few hours and the error went away.

Does anyone know what this message refers to? I've gotten it a couple times.

It usually pops up when you're in park and the engine is on, but this seems to be a glitch where it stays on even when driving.

In the picture, the speedometer is saying 85 — luder888 — did the car keep that speed or were you doing 85 when you snapped that picture?

Car is driving itself per the icons, so I'd say this is at speed.

i wasn’t sure if that was the case or the display “froze” at that screen as part of the error and stayed that way until the engine was re-started.

That message comes up when engine is on and you put it in park then open the driver door. happens to me everyday when I pull out of office, stop, park and get out to close the parking lot gate. Should not happen when car is in motion. Take it in to the dealer.

That green light is a combination of the adaptive cruise control and the active lane assist. Read your owners manual.
