As you can see, this happens quite a bit. During the drive on the 11th, I was able to open the DVD tray each time it happened and immediately close it. At that time the DVD based navigation system would reboot and would work fine. But then it would happen again shortly after.
I have an appointment today for a B-1 service and noted that I wanted this to be looked at as well. I am curious to see what happens this time.
My opinion is that the dvd optical drive is failing which is causing the issue.
Update (5/12/14 @ 12:45 cdt): Brought the car into McGrath Honda in Elgin, IL (which is where we bought the car and also always have it serviced) a few minutes past noon today. I was told most likely they will not be able to diagnose it since it is not happening at the moment, but they can try and it will be a $65 diagnostic fee. Now i am just sitting and waiting.
Update (5/12/14 @ 4:22 cdt): After having my B-1 service and a few other recommended services done, I am a few hundred dollars lighter in the pocket and was told by Tim that they were going to attempt to contact the warranty company for approval on the repair of the DVD Navigation system. According to the technician, they recommend a new DVD unit and new disc to repair the issue. Tim was not able to comment on if it would be covered or not.
