SL2 Artifacting?

Hello! I recently purchased a canon sl2 from an eBay seller. However upon further inspection is appears that any images with direct sunlight have major chromatic aberrations. Pretty sure it's not my lens because I also have another lens and it does the same exact thing. The lenses I am shooting with are the canon 50mm 1.8 STM and the Canon 24MM 2.8 STM. I contacted the eBay seller directly and they had mentioned that my camera came with a two year warranty, however they shipped from China and I don't necessarily want to go through the struggle of shipping it off if this a is a normal thing that happens with this camera. Here is the linkthat gives a small demonstration I created in lightroom. Note this is not the only instance, this also happens with different scenes. Pretty much any bright sunlight regardless of my aperture and shutter speed settings seem to result in the same artifact. I have also tried ND filters as well. Maybe it's both canon lenses? Maybe I need to lower my aperature to something above 3-4 in the bright sunlight and boost up my ISO? Regardless, I would love some help on this topic. I have searched around and it doesn't seem that anyone is running into EXACTLY my issues.

Canon EOS Rebel SL2 (EOS 200D / Kiss X9)
