Default Anyone have the flickering screen fixed and have it do it again?

I had my screen replaced (or at least they said they replaced it) about a year ago on my 2014 and now it has started flickering and going black again. Seems to be getting worse every day since it recurred a couple weeks ago. Seems to be worse in the morning when temps are in the 40s.

Sounds like you need to hit the dealer again for a new screen that actually works! Sorry about that but there isn't another option, like drop an aspirin or a cough drop in the cubby hole. Hit the dealer and stop being frustrated. It might help if you would video it on your phone while it is having a conniption. That way the dealer won't say, "Looks good to me!"

Have them check the code. There are two problems - screen needs replacement and another is cable plugged into screen needs replacement. When they replaced my cable I begged them to replace the screen while everything was apart. They did not and two months later they replaced the screen. I have a early 2014 and reading problems on this forum is early cars had a bad screen manufacturer so I knew it was a matter of time before my screen went. All is well now. My bet it is the your cable. That is exactly the way mine acted.
