Just an update for anyone interested. They're replacing the screen. They think it is an outside layer of the screen coming off due to reflection??? Reflection of what, I don't know...but definitely something to look out for on your cars as it's growing on mine and getting worse with heat it seems. Apparently, the reinstall of a new screen isn't too painful compared to the old cars they said. We'll see...
How long did it take for them to fix yours? Was there also some delivery time for the new screen?

Wow. I would be contacting regional managers. If you get nowhere, then the US Headquarters of Toyota/Lexus. It's in Torrance, California.

I made a protective cover for my screen.

There's already a thread about this somewhere here in the forum... There is a protective layer that can get scratched off if someone accidentally or purposefully presses too hard on the screen. A member did this by cleaning his nav screen. He actually had to scratch all of that protective coating completely off to unveil the regular screen underneath... It took him forever too. Ill try to find the link! But sadly this is what you're probably going to have to do.

The issue you are seeing is the antiglare layer coming off.
Wasn't as much of an issue when Nav screens had these nice hoods over them like in the current RX/GS/LS ect.
It doesn't take much to scratch the anitglare, and when you do it's an ever expanding problem. Seriously, one wipe with a dirty cloth (like the ones that the service dept uses when they wash your car for free) or one with some type of cleaner that eats the coating and it's ruined forever.
