Possible radio display problem...

[brumma]

I noticed something on my drive home tonight... There appear to be vertical lines that bleed from the letters on the radio display screen. They run the entire height of the screen. They are fainter than the text itself, but they are definitely there and I can see them scroll across the screen when the text scrolls. Has anyone else noticed this? Is something wrong with the display?

Here's a photo...

How cold was it outside and when you started the car? I've seen LED displays (other cars) go 'lazy' when they're really cold, usually clears up when the car comes up to temperature.

Have you got the dashboard lighting turned up to maximum? Try turning the brightness down on the display.

Not at 98' F

Besides, the temp was actually only about 75º F. The external temp reading is elevated because I had just parked in the garage about 30 min. before taking the photo and the engine was still cooling down.

Took the car in today and they're submitting it for warranty replacement. We'll see how that goes...
