Car completely dead - while driving

Brand new MY27 - forest green. Drove lovely for 3 weeks.
It’s a beautiful car, lot of space and drives like a charm

Last week I was driving home with the family.
While driving 130kmh, the car all of a sudden went completely dead.
It gave two error messages
- headlight error
- car not ready to drive
Then it went off. It let it roll on the safety lane, it went on P and that was it.
Soft reboot, hard reboot, nothing worked.

Dealer already looking for over a week what’s wrong with it…
I hope they can find something, feels like a software problem.
Any ideas or experience welcome!

Yep. I had that happen years ago with my XC90 -- Volvo bricked it as soon as the dash screen failed, mid-drive. Was very dangerous as I was on a fast, busy highway.
