Although I have no accessibility features selected in my car, the Center Display Notifications App always displays that I have one 1 message available when I enter the car. When I open the Notifications app, the 1 message is that driver accessibility features are running and it does not allow me to clear this notification (however, when I leave the Notifications App, the icon says there are then 0 notifications.) Going back into the Notification app when it says there are 0 notifications, it still says 'driver accessibility features are active'. When I go into the Accessibility menu, I don't have any driver accessibility features turned on. This has been like this since I first purchased my Macan 4 eight months ago. I can't find anything about this in searching the forums here, so, am I the only one with this problem? Anyone know a solution? I have all the latest software updates as of a couple of weeks ago.

You aren’t the only one with this as mine does and I intend on asking my dealer about it when my vehicle goes in on Friday. Will post if they come back with anything.

Have the same issue since owning the car 3 months ago. I even factory reset the PCM but that didn't clear it.

A txt message notification? Yes, we had been getting that a lot. It won't swipe away, covers up 1/3 of the screen, and the only way I can clear it is to reboot the PCM. Super annoying.

Typically happens when the car starts up and connects to the phone via bluetooth, and it "catches up" on txt messages that the phone had received since the last time the phone connected to the car. For a while it seemed like it would only get stuck on the last one if I tried to do anything too soon on the screen before the last message cleared on it's own. But a couple of times it got stuck anyway (maybe another process interrupted it?).

I went into the phone settings (on the PCM) and turned off notifications. I think that fixed it, but those settings don't always seem to stay in place. Switching between 2 driver profiles seems to confuse this car and it won't load all the settings correctly. I finally gave up and deleted the 2nd driver profile. Didn't work well anyway, and it rarely set the seat/mirror positions right. We usually have to hit (and hold for 7 seconds) the door button every time we get in to get the right saved seat profile. Most of the rest of our settings are the same so reverting to a single driver profile for both drivers is no big loss. And hopefully creates far fewer quirks like this that seem related to profiles/settings. Only did that a few weeks ago, but no problems since.

I think you’re describing a different issue than the OP (me).
