Well then the dealership should check or replace the BCM as stated on their recall txt message.

My AC suddenly blew air even if its in Off position, this happened several times. Also, while driving, AC blower suddenly intensified while AC setting is in #1 position. In all occasions it just lasted several seconds. I did reported this occurrences during PMS but CASA found nothing even after they run their diagnostics procedure. Appreciate if anyone can share what could have caused the malfunction, and advise solution on this. I have 1 year warranty to go. Unit is 2017 1.5HB.

Gremlins...not common, but they happen. Never tried them, but the infotainment did act up a coupla times. Bluetooth would take a while to connect...reboot always sorted it.

BCM recall was specifically for those VIN batches w/ faulty wiper relay.

Yup, no issues. Underpinnings of both variants, 1.5 & 2.0, are identical.

Alignment is part of a vehicle's periodic maintenace I'd regularly do & on every tire refresh. Keeps the handling spot on & tread wear in check.

After an hour drive I turned off the engine. After a few minutes I started the engine again and show the iStop indicator shown in amber and blinking. There's also another warning indicator shown at the dashboard:

Anybody here experienced this already?

Most probably, your battery is about to die. I know, because I have a dying battery. You can expect next is the "Battery Management" and later will be the "check engine" indicator.
