Instrument cluster problem

I have a 2020 GT Premium convertible. Yesterday the center section of the instrument cluster (between the tach and the speedo) got stuck on a change to MyMode. There are icons for drive mode, steering mode and exhaust mode, and below them it says Hold OK to set MyMode. If I hold OK I can see the progress gizmo move left to right. Once it completes that progress (only a few seconds) it just reverts to what I described above. I can't get it to go back to the standard display. Any ideas?

Except that this old PC connected to my WiFi network and downloaded an update to the center console software. And I was told that if I drove away from home it would, of course, disconnect, but when I returned home it would reconnect. Crazy!!

OTA Updates {Over The Air!}

Many of The Newer Cars Will Do it Automatically. Kinda Scary if a Hacker Decides To Play With.

Not a Fan of The Big Brother Tech They Use These Days!

So here is another technical question. Is there an easy and inexpensive way to equip my 2020 GT Premium convertible with automatic door locks?

See Pages 62-63 and Pages 90- 95 Of 2020 Owners Manual On Changing Settings if Car is Equipped With Auto Locks. It States Dealer Can Add if Not Equipped.

I expect that having the dealer add them would be more than I feel they are worth.

I Sure Would Think Your Car Has The Feature it Just Needs To Be Turned on in Settings. Even My Old 06 P-71 Police Car has Auto locks!
