My Tesla used to crash fairly often, and thankfully only once this year. Usually in my driveway but there were two occasions that it crashed while in traffic waiting to make left turns. The touch screen interface component was the subject of all of these so called "crashes": the car is still drivable, but there is a large loss of feedback -- car signal tones are no longer present -- there isn't feedback to know if the car's signal lights are actually engaged or not, no speedometer, climate system stops operation etc. It takes about 2 minutes to restart and recover. Thankfully the Tesla touch screen console is only part of larger system as described.

This isn't really Tesla specific. I've been in a handful of rental cars that had the infotainment system crash. Which wouldn't be a huge problem if they hadn't eliminated all the physical buttons to do basically anything at all.

Something that seems to trigger it across makes and models is to adjust media controls while the backup cam is on-screen.

Nice use of downvoting on a public safety comment!
