Yesterday I was driving along talking on the phone via bluetooth, when the system dropped my call and the I Drive screen went completely blank. About 20 seconds later, it rebooted up again and now everything seems to be normal. My car is 2 months old, 2300 miles. should I be worried? Has this happened to anybody else?

I've also had to use "CTRL-ALT-DEL" 2 or 3 times with 13.3 to get the NAV to wake-up correctly.
