Default Honeywell CM927 LCD screen fail - common?

I have a CM927 which is a couple of years old.
Individual cells in the LCD screen are starting to fail - still usable at
the moment but a bit disconcerting.

Google gives a mixed picture.
Some posters say they have had loads of failures.
Others say they have never had a problem.

Anyone here had the problem with a CM927 - either own or supplied to
others?

More importantly, have you had more than one fail?

Does applying gentle pressure to the display make the faulty segments
work?

There are two common ways the LCD could be connected to the PCB.

A ribbon cable bonded to the glass,
or a clamp arrangement with a zebrastripe rubber connector sandwiched
between.

The latter type often can be cleaned up successfully.

I've not had much success with the bonded type.
