next time it happens, take a video of it - shine a flashlight on it and show them it's still running but the screen is dark, show them the brightness setting is maxed. Show your service advisor this video and they'll have to say it's "verified" to be a problem, which is what happened with me. Or worse case is you've already told them about it and they don't fix it but it's on record so you get a freebie even when it's out of warranty and happens again.
