Vehicle chrome trim on the inside dash blinds driver between 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM. The bright chrome is blinding and becomes a safety issue while driving. The design and placement of the chrome is burns my eyes while driving. Perhaps not using chrome on the interior when sending vehicles to places where it is sunny 95% of the time would prevent safety issues with visibility.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I reported that my display screen would often appear corrupted when navigating. The screen will either go blank or appear grainy, preventing me from accessing the navigation or music features. Restarting my phone or turning off the display does not help. I missed a turn on a highway with heavy traffic en route to the airport most recently and it is increasingly stressful dealing with it. At another instance, my brights would come on randomly. I turned the lights off and on, which was dangerous, which did not even work. I am concerned that this may happen again, which will put the safety of myself and others at risk. I have a video of the incident where the brights kept going off and on without my control, but I am unable to upload them. I brought it to my dealership and they returned the next day saying there is nothing they can do and to bring it in when it occurs next. I live 40 minutes from the dealership and don't really have time to stop what I'm doing when the computer glitches, usually 40% of the time. In addition, I reported it to my dealership and Buick customer care. I was told on January 30th that a supervisor would reach out regarding my case, but I have not heard back.
