Just curious. Is this an issue confined to a certain generation? Since Tesla seems to offer no fix (which I find incomprehensible), I'd be really annoyed to get stuck with a dud.

Does the yellow border screen issue occur with the newer Model S?

A quick search on this forum does not bring up yellow border on MCU for 2015. There may be a few posts I missed, but safe to say not a major problem for that vintage, unlike the screen bubbles/ leakage.
My guess is when the fixed the bubbles and leaking goo on the older cars, say about 2017, they caused the yellow border problem.

Well, just traded in my 2015 S90D, which had a flawless screen, for Raven P100DL. Fingers crossed this problem doesn't present with new car. I really is incomprensible that Tesla won't provide a definitive fix for such an obvious defect. Also surprised there isn't more talk of class action lawsuit.
I'm having this issue in my 6/2018 UK car:
I'm being told that Tesla are working on a tool to fix it and I will notified when it comes to the UK. I am really disappointed and annoyed that an obvious hardware issue is not being taken care of on a £100k car (pretty sure the likes of BMW, Merc & Audi would just replace it). With all the great things associated with owning a Tesla, it would be a shame to leave a bad taste for something so obviously a hardware issue that they should just replace, no questions.
I'm thinking about covering it on my youtube channel.

I am SOOO happy I did not get Raven Fever and trade in my '15 MS. The Ludicrous upgrade was tempting though.
If you have one of those, probably wont be able to focus on the yellow screen after a coupla launches, just saying...

There's no point in replacing them right now, they're just going to develop the issue again in a few months. What needs to happen is they need to develop new screens that don't have the issue. They may try using the "healing" fix but that seems to be temporary. I'm sure they'll eventually fix the screen and the question then is will you be able to get the hardware replaced with one that doesn't have the issue? We'll have to see.

<= Another 03/2015 MS (85) with a perfect MCU screen.
I got Raven fever again this morning, but then I see threads like this and I think I should sit tight with a car that I LOVE.

I think they have already developed a screen that is not defective for the 2019 cars.
