Default Possible Electrical Issue

Twice in the last month my wife's 2017 RX350 seems to have had some kind of electrical issue, she said the first time the radio screen turned purple and was unable to control anything from both the dash and the steering wheel. Tonight she said everything went black speedo and all, has anyone experienced anything like this? Go figure her warranty ran out 1k miles ago. Any insight would be great.

​​​​​​??? I was getting this when I bought mine in 2016 and got fixed by a software update. I am surprised that it still happens with yours nowadays.
