We have the SAME problem. My husband just came from work, and the touchscreen is REALLY HOT to the touch, and it does not come up at all, it's all blacked out! It was hot today in CA. We put the car in the garage, in more shade, and while the rest of the car's heat came down, touching the touchscreen with the PALM of our hands, the touchscreen IS REALLY HOT. It's boiling hot even an hour with the car being OFF completely!!!! Nothing else in the car is hot!
We believe it's a software problem, not a hardware one. There are one-two more threads about this exact issue in the front page of this subforum, popping up in the last few days. This means that it's not a random hardware failure for us, but it's reproducible among a number of people recently, now that the weather gets hotter. Another clue that this is a software issue is that it didn't happen last year. This is probably a new bug, introduced in one of the firmware updates during the late last year's updates.
I'm currently in a bit of a scare, because the screen is so hot, it might make the car catch fire! :/
Is there any way to "reset" the whole thing, as some devices have, where you go with a little pin and you reset the whole thing? Wish it existed, because right now, the whole behavior of the car with the boiling hot screen has me in a scare.
