I've been seeing an interesting thing happening recently with my '17 Premier. On days when it is hot out or the car has been sitting in the sun all day, and I enter the exceptionally hot cabin to start my car, I am seeing an issue with the center console display.
Basically - the backlight is out and the touch screen does not work. I can faintly see the screen icons and notification popups so the display itself is on/changing - only the touch and backlight do not function. After driving the car for a few minutes and cooling off the cabin, the console suddenly returns to normal working order - the display lights and the touch screen works. It's as if the high cabin temperature is preventing the display from working properly.
I don't recall seeing this issue last summer with the car so I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced it. I do plan to bring the car to the dealer (I took a video of the issue the last time it happened) but just wanted to know if anyone else has seen this.
