Nothing to worry about. The airplane is supposed to be on top of the magenta line...
The displays for the 430 are long out of production, and I heard Garmin bought up all that was available for support spares. Once those are gone from their inventory the 430's days will be numbered.

Must be the Cirrus version of the approach, seeing how you're 50 miles away
Hmmm.
Mine had vertical lines on it (like, really bad ones) a number of years ago, not long after I had the WAAS upgrade done, then it stopped, and has not done it since.
Garmin has a flat-rate repair which is pretty much a, "jack it up and drive a new one in" deal. Assuming it hasn't been, like, flooded. And isn't a 28v-only unit (which they no longer support). Around a grand, which seems pretty reasonable in today's pretend money.
I say, watch it and be ready to ship off for rework if it gets worse.
