This occurred one time only. As my bluetooth connected phone began to ring, the car's touchscreen interface went blank and the HVAC vents rotated to the closed position. I am not sure if the entire electrical system went down as the touchscreen immediately rebooted and the vents rotated back open. I did not notice any problems with braking, acceleration, or handling. However, I remain concerned as all systems on this car are drive by wire.
