Sudden errors related to camera system, headlights, and Emergency Stop function

Does it come at the end of a bunch of other warnings? I didn't catch all of them as they came in quick succession. It did happen shortly after starting to drive (maybe 2 minutes).

No. Just that particular error. It used to happen during our heat waves. I was attentive because of my dashcam since some reports floated around that it would shut down in extreme heat. Anecdotally it was the collision warning system that shut down, not the dashcam.

As soon as AC was on, the warning would disappear.

Common source of CAN bus errors in cars, flaky ground connection (typically to the body of the car).

True enough, but I'd hope that Porsche quality is high enough to not develop grounding issues within a year of construction.

Loose ground connection, or even a bent pin inside a connector can happen (I almost lemoned a brand new Lexus due to a bent pin the techs couldn’t find - it made contact but very weak causing noise on the bus).
