Backup camera failure by model year
What owners say
Regarding the rear back up camera, the camera is a vital tool for us, the vehicle was literally one month out of manufacturer warranty and it went out. Then we went to our local dealership for a service and asked the service writer if they could repair the camera under warranty and without even looking in the computer he quickly responded that we would have to pay out of pocket, is the camera not a safety device? I really wish dealerships would stand behind their products.

The car shakes very uruptly at idle. You can look at the engine and see it's shaking at idle. If you turn the air conditioner on it gets worse. Radio screen will not work sometimes. Blue tooth will work then cut off then turn back on when it feels like it. Automatic headlights work then randomly not work where I have to turn them manually on. Wipers do the same as the headlights but to correct the issue for the wipers it takes turning off the car and turning it back on and out them on low. Engine will die randomly while driving the car at any speed. Gps will not load sometimes. The back up camera works when screen works but also fails when screen is working and while backing up. During take off the car will stall like no gas then it will go like it's getting gas. During cold it shifts really rough like your using a standard slamming it in gear. I have also has 2 misfire in 2 different cylinders. One was a coil pack the other was supposedly a loose connection. Took car in for all this and dealer said if their is no check engine nothing they can do even though they feel the car chair and can see the engine shaking. They tell me to come back in when light comes on. Light switch has been replaced and still faults. Ecm and TCM habe been reprogrammed multiple times and problems still consist.
