This is a safety issue because if someone is travelling and the car gets cold they'll be unable to navigate. Imagine getting up for an emergency to go somewhere and the screen is black preventing you from travelling or you're travelling and stop for a rest and the vehicle gets cold preventing you from continuing until it thaws out. If someone had an emergency and needed to find a hospital or in case of diabetic needed to find somewhere to eat and they couldn't because the navigation screen was frozen. |
