1. A method for providing information about a failure in a virtual engine sound system (VESS) unit for a vehicle, the method comprising:
- sending a VESS unit failure message to a cluster;
displaying the VESS unit failure message on the cluster;
determining whether a speed of the vehicle is within a speed range where the VESS unit is active; and
controlling the VESS unit failure message to be sent to the cluster only when the speed of the vehicle is within the speed range where the VESS unit is active.

18. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing program instructions for providing information about a failure in a virtual engine sound system (VESS) unit for a vehicle, the computer readable medium comprising:
-
program instructions that send a VESS unit failure message to a cluster; program instructions that display the VESS unit failure message on the cluster; program instructions that determine whether a speed of the vehicle is within a speed range where the VESS unit is active; and program instructions that control the VESS unit failure message to be sent to the cluster only when the speed of the vehicle is within the speed range where the VESS unit is active.
