Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When placed into reverse the backup camera automatically turns on at maximum brightness and cannot be dimmed or over ridden. This causes blinding and inability to see out of the vehicle at night. The brightness is such that you cannot see out of any windows from inside the vehicle. To see outside you must roll down the windows but this eliminates the ability to see what is behind you.”
