Analog clock 10-12 min behind the digital clocks

My first major issue (not really), the analog clock is 10 to 12 minutes behind the digital clocks. Setting the time a number of times and the problem still exist. Anyone seen this on their C's?

They're the same times here. Probably need a new analog clock installed. "should" be easy, and not something they can say was designed that way

Perhaps the minute hand wasn't correctly assembled. Indeed a replacement as mine has updated when timezones changed.

No, it was correct at one point but failed recently. Don't know when I will bring it in for repair as there are two other clocks in the car that are working correctly. I usually don't look at the analog one. Thanks.

My 2015 E has the same issue occasionally. My research says happens more often when warm and requires replacement to fix.

take it to the dealer. They probably forgot to add the right amount of plutonium to the flux capacitor

I'm please the report that the analog clock has realized that it was wrong and is now sinc with the digitals all by itself. I was ready to trade this POS in. Just kidding...
