Default 2009 Nav Screen Problem

After not driving my 2009 3LT coupe for several weeks the screen on the system will not work but the radio is on. After a while it comes on and once driven it comes on every time. This car is still under certified warranty 12/31. Just trying to figure out if I need to have it repaired if this is abnormal. Thanks.

A weak battery can cause funky stuff to happen to the sat nav operation. Have your battery tested.

Some cars, mostly '09's it seems, had a software timing anomaly that caused that. There was a TSB to update the software.

The TSB is in post 3 in here:

I had this exact issue and had my local service department order the firmware update DVD. Once it arrived (took 2 weeks) they were able to update the firmware in about 10 minutes. However.... after having this done it seemed to clear up the issue for a couple months, but it has started doing it again. No video output, however everything else works (radio, cd).
