Anyway, fast forward to this morning I went down to my car and because it's raining here in NY I put on the wipers and confirmed that you can see the wipers briefly go through the field of view of the AR camera. Then I realized that the AR view was working perfectly with a nice clear view forward. There must have been some dirt on the top of the windshield which was cleared when the wipers were engaged. So all is well and I (sheepishly) canceled the appointment I had made with the dealership's service department.

Boy, do I ever feel stupid. LOL

Thanks for the the responses which guided me to this "solution.".
Glad that worked out. Crowdsourcing is one great thing about these Forums.
