2012 CIC stopped working

I have a 2012 that's been wonderful in the few months I've owned it now. Everything was working fine, stopped to get a drink at a store. Came out, started it and noticed no screen, no chime, no radio, no nothing.

I checked every fuse I could find in the front and back and I can't find anything blown. I assume the CIC unit itself is dead, since the radio doesn't work.

A couple of questions :

1) Any other things I can try, other than fuses?

2) Is this vehicle specific, meaning does the data it pulls come from itself or somewhere else? The reason I ask is I would consider replacing it with one from another car, but probably not if it's going to bring over all the other car's info and data.

3) If it's bad, can I put the Android/Car Play system in, or do those systems pull info from the CIC system? Not sure if the CIC system is just pulling info from another computer and the Android/Car Play options are pulling from that same thing, so they'll work with a dead unit because they are bypassing the old unit completely.

4) If it's bad, anyone in the US that repairs them that has a good reputation?
