Default Gauge Problem

I have a 2008 Z51, M6, black with the gray competition wheels my first Vette and I absolutely love the car. At around 2500 miles (now 3000) the dash gauge button that displays temp, tire pressure, etc. stopped working. After the car sat for an hour it worked, now the last two times out it is not working at all. I am going to take it into a dealer but figured I would ask the membership if anyone else has had any issues, and maybe a solution that might allow for me to do a quick fix.

Also, anyone have any experience with any dealers up in the Hudson Valley north of metro NY? Kerbeck was great on the sale but is way too far to drive to for a fix...Thanks

Occasionally one or two of the buttons on the console pod have stuck or got caught on the edge of the bezel surround.

I just freed them using my fingernail and I'm careful not to push the buttons in too hard.
