I was driving down a highway traveling 59 mph around 5:20am when my infotainment system and lights inside all went dark. The speedometer stayed lit up but changed to an alternate color while i was traveling. I slowed down to make sure i could brake and that all was working. Within about 20-30 seconds the whole system restarted and came back online. This was not necessarily a safety hazard, however the sheer shock of it made cause for my safety because i reacted to it in a somewhat panic sort of way by braking rapidly. I found this forum where others have reported the exact same thing. There were no warning lamps messages or any notice of the occurrence. It all started back up as if nothing happened.
