Default GS radio/screen

My 2016 GS Executive model had it’s radio replaced when the screen flickered pink and then went blank. I had to restart the car before everything went back to normal. I thought that was the end of it, but it occurred again and this time I didn’t have to restart the car. I have heard that this has been an issue for the RXs but not the GS so much. Has anyone else had this issue and what was the fix, given my “new” radio is under 5 months old and the car is not my daily driver.
Thx

I have had an issue with my screen flickering and going black. After driving and waiting ~5 minutes it resets itself and functions normally. IDK why it does this but once in awhile it happens.

The screen on my 2013 GS was replaced under warranty after about 3 months. Haven't had a problem since. Better not, it's out of warranty.

Is the unit rebooting? If it is, that's a radio or hard drive issue.

for those of you who are having reboot issues on their 2016 GS there is an update for our systems that address the rebooting issues although I've never had an issue I installed the update anyway systems running mint.
