Backup camera failure by model year
What owners say
Rear back up camera at night is extremely bright and blinding to driver. Makes it useless at night and dangerous. There's no way to lower brightness setting for night time back up moves. I've seen many complaints on this. We owners shouldn't have to pay to have this fix.
I put my car in reverse and the back up camera on the head unit is blue
Electrical problems with Chevrolet Mylink display. A variety of errors include backup camera flashing on at highway speeds, hands free phone calls put on hold, navigation screen flashing random inaccurate destinations. These distractions impair safe operation of the vehicle. Dealer verified issues but could not perform diagnostics on a timely basis. Issues continue.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 chevrolet colorado. While driving various low speeds at night, the back up camera monitor became too bright for the contact to see properly while reversing the vehicle. In addition, at night, the back up camera illuminated the cabin of the vehicle and the contact could not see the road. Hiday motors in bluffton, indiana was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1.
The display for the backup camera is on at full brightness. There is a control knob to dim the interior lighting and display, but when the vehicle is put into reverse, the display goes to full brightness and cannot be controlled by the brightness control knob. At night, the passenger side mirror is not useable since the backup display is so bright. This almost resulted in accidents when backing up into a parking spot.
