1300 miles on the car. Love it, no other problems. It is a joy to drive. Nav, ML sound. Twice, on startup the nav/radio screen and the secondary display sort of freeze up. The trackpad does not work (no cursor visible) and the radio does not operate. There is no bluetooth connection, and a variety of other glitches on the dashboard controls. However, the car drives fine and is safe/functional. It seems to happen about 30 seconds after starting, and in both cases happened at night. I called Lexus and they said "we will let you know if there is a campaign for this problem." Of course there is no campaign, as far as I can tell, I have the only RC in California thus far. What I want to do is file a bug report with Lexus, but it doesn't seem like there is a way to do that. Has anybody seen this with another recent model? Probably the electronics are similar on other 2014/2015 models...

I tried the 32 character thing, no luck. The audio player can read my MP3 files, but the "Customize Images" menu can't see my images. USB flash drive, FAT32 format a single folder named Image jpeg files with ASCII names 32 characters long. (tried less than 32 characters, tried .jpeg and .jpg extensions, tried inside and outside the folder, tried a folder named Images instead of Image. No luck. 2015 RC350 FSport. (Got it Friday, first one sold in California!)

I don't remember where I got it but you can get them at just about any electronics store - Best Buy, Circuit City, Radio Shack, etc. I got a short one to minimize the wires in the console. It probably also helps to reduce engine noise/interference as any wire in there will act as an antenna. What power splitter did you use? I just bought the Belkin adapter and took it apart to make it all fit, otherwise I can't close the cover. Works fine but looks terrible, and probably won't last! This application needs a really low profile cigarette power plug. Kind of a wonky design, but at least it is in there.
