Stupid shit too. Trans failsafe, susp inactive, brakes light would turn on. Navi reboot. Guess what. Overvoltage. Not Under voltage.

I would scan it. Inpa will pick up a code if it’s low bat or over voltage.
It probably is the VR. When mine failed it would have both under and over voltage issues. I consider a VR failure an alternator failure and just replace the whole thing but, like yourself, many here have just replaced the VR and been back in business.
