Had first fail since the big update/recall

[GiantFan]

MY 25 Macan owner here. Had an unusual event and first fail since the recall. I think it relates to the interface with Apple Play, but open to opinion.
While driving to an event, i switched from satellite radio to Apple Play (using on screen Apple Play button) and turned on music. When I arrived at my destination and parked, the usual shutdown message did not show on the console. In a few hours, I returned and when I opened the door, Apple Play resumed where it had left off. When I closed the door, the center screen shut down and the car would not go into reverse or drive. When I opened the door, the screen came on and Apple Play music resumed, but the car would not start.
Oddly, this ended when I pushed the power button to the left of the steering wheel and the car sprung back to life. Today I checked and everything was back to normal. I was really amazed that I had gone months with no issues and then this happened. Thoughts welcome!

I've had this happen before the WSJ0 campaign (not a recall) for the VR28.13 update was applied. It happened at a full service car wash with several people in and out of the car as they cleaned the inside. The car got confused by which state it should be in with the key moving around.

It was a bit concerning, but pressing the Start button did eventually get it back in sync.

Thanks for sharing! Good to know the power button can be used as a fix! I'm finally heading in for my updates in two weeks. Besides the usual annoyances, TPMS and parking sensors have been non-functional for the past few weeks.
