After approximately 2 hours of having my phone plugged in and doing audio through the cars audio system, the connection will drop.

The sockets are then unresponsive (don’t charge other devices). And i cannot connect any device to the car through Bluetooth or usb, basically it’s crashes and freezes but just for the media options on the audio.

The fix is to get the audio system to restart, which requires turning the car off and leaving it for a bit. Or running it through Bluetooth and charging via the cigarette socket.

Is this a ‘feature’ of just my car or do others have this quirk? Car isn’t under warranty anymore, so just taking it to the dealer isn’t the preferred option!
