2016 2SS Camaro issues

Alright guys, long-time lurker, rare poster. So, I've had my 2016 2SS for a few months now. I bought it with 5 miles on the odometer. As of today, we're sitting at 6k miles and I've had a series of problems with it. I didn't include the noises caused by the recall on the line since it was fixed by a revised part.

1.) First time in the shop around 1k miles. Rubbing noise coming from rearend while turning, especially on cold-start. They replaced rear diff. fluid and noted that it was dark-brown.
2.) Second time in the shop around 3k miles. Rubbing noise coming from rearend while turning. They replaced rear diff. fluid again and noted it was dark-brown.
3.) Rubbing noise again. About to take it back to the shop and I am going to suspect they'll do the same thing again.
4.) Touch screen on mylink is being molested by a ghost. The panel becomes non-responsive and/or receives phantom input causing it to spaz out. This seems to be directly caused by the weather. On a warm or cool sunny day/night - it works perfectly. Here's a video I recorded of it happening yesterday. Humid & Dry days seem to create different issues.



So - I absolutely frickin love this car and I do not want to lose it but I feel like - if I don't claim lemon law on this car after the 4th time the rear diff. needs a flush again, I am going to regret it later on when I don't have the warranty anymore. So I am asking you all, what is your opinion about this and has the 2017 2SS addressed this problem at all? Do the 2SS's come with the rear-end cooler by default now?
