I’ve seen the message a couple times. I’ve also had my front camera not work and inability to change stations on Sirius.

This is all in the last week or two.

Had this message come up this morning as I left my local corporate coffee shop. I had the Procal installed yesterday at a dealer. No issues with driving and everything has been working as it should so far.

I had this happen this afternoon as well when I got home from an errand. But when I left for that errand, the system was glitchy in general, wouldn't select XM Radio, wouldn't move through menu very well. I did the soft reset and got it all back to normal. Then got home and noticed the unblocked message when I turned off the car. The car connects to the house wifi when it gets home, does it's updating thing. Probably sending my driving habits to Jake at State Farm to squeeze out the extra $100 I have in my pocket this week, and reporting my recorded conversations with myself in DC traffic to Amazon down the street (who basically run the CIA and DoD cloud networks)... Oh well, I ain't payin' Jake squat, and First Amendment protection (although likely to offend the Me Too movement crowd if they ever heard my private conversations ((mostly because I can't get my wife to "Me Too" me))...

Mine alternates between Unblocked and Saved. Has since a software update about a year ago. Doesn’t seem to affect anything that I can tell

I have occasionally gotten this message. Usually right after startup and just as I'm about to shift it in gear.

I am not aware of any firmware updates that have been pushed. With that, I haven't noticed any glitches in the vehicle's performance.

I have been getting the 'vehicle unblocked' message randomly for a year or more too. I loosely correlated it to first appearing after I performed forscan updates, installed the procal tune, or most likely after the dealer so helpfully performed software updates for me when I took it in for service - updates that I, of course, had intentionally not installed ;)
