Default Flickering infotainment screen

I noticed it this morning on my way to work. Only the bottom portion. I lowered and raised the screen and all was well. On the way home tonight the entire screen flickered. Lowered and raised the screen again and it's fine.....To paraphrase the Police...I have a ghost in my machine. Any thoughts?

Not an uncommon issue. And is a warranty one as well (replace the assembly)

Assumed it was a 2017...

Might price the part. Doesn't look all that hard to replace

(just saw your mileage in the rough idle thread. Guess that explains the expired warranty!)

I had the same exact problem last month on my 2015 Stingray with 21,000 miles on it. Besides the occasional flicker I would also get a black screen once in awhile. Lower and raised it and it would be fine again. Brought it into the dealer and they replaced it under my extended warranty.
Life is good again.
