Infotainment screen takes several minutes to turn on

[MNChevy2018]

2019 Bolt: Over the years, there have been periods when the infotainment system can take several minutes to turn on. There are other times when the infotainment system comes up as soon as the power on the car is engaged. During periods when it is not working, the "powerless" screen means there is no a/c, cameras, radio, Apple CarPlay, etc. The dealership service department says they've never heard of the problem and it never happens the few times the car is in for service. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Double check your 12V battery and cables.
