Highlight question

I recently completed a highlight trial for a snack bar -- all of the other blind/unlabeled products I've tried in the past have told me the product name/manufacturer in the surveys at some point. This one didn't! Is there a way to contact them to ask this? I really liked it and wanted to keep my eyes open for if/when it comes to market!

Intermittent BSD AEB Alerts | 2019 Santa Fe XL

2019 Santa Fe XL Limited Ultimate FWD

Starting a few months ago I've had intermittent alerts upon system startup.
At first, I had the AEB system alert then the BSD system alert and the dash would show the traction control light, auto hold light, and a few others. Looked up the issue online, found a lot of reports indicating that dirty sensors could be the cause -- so we washed the car and the issue did seem to go away.

A few weeks later it came back a few times at system startup then went away again. Then next time it seemed to resurge I had been noticing some hesitancy when turning on the car the day prior/that day, and of course during this occurrence I went to a donation center drive through (where they have numerous large signs asking you to turn off your car before getting out and dropping items off) and of course I was asked to move my car forward 3x in quick succession after I had pulled up (because the old man working there was being ornery truly a ridiculous interaction overall and each time I did as asked and turned the car off) but -- you guessed it -- the battery died due to the rapid fire on/off sequencing.

So - we replaced the battery.

All alerts seemed to disappear... for a few weeks.

Well, today they returned -- and this time it was only the AEB & BSD check system alerts but no traction control light on the dash -- AND it happened after I'd been driving the car for roughly 5 minutes. All other times it only alerted at startup (but sometimes the alert did disappear while driving).
Any time I've had the alerts there, there's been some issue(s) with the infotainment system/screen as well. Sometimes the whole screen was black (before battery replacement). All times this has happened I have not been able to prompt the 360 camera to turn on when pushing the button. However, I have noticed that (sometimes, if not all, I can't recall) when putting the car into reverse the backup camera WILL turn on despite inability to manually prompt the cameras to show.

I've read up on a few forums and internet searches and found a few possible causes:

- dirty/misaligned sensors

- wheel sensors failing

- battery issues

- fuse?

I am planning to contact a few auto places near me to see if they will scan for diagnostic issue(s) that I might be able to remedy myself before I take it into the dealership/service center as I'm sure they will charge an arm and a leg and possibly "remedy" the issue only for it to just happen again, since it's so intermittent.

If anyone has experienced this same issue or has any alternative suggestions, i'd appreciate it!
