2019 Dodge Journey: backup camera failure

Backup camera is flickering and does not provide backup camera help

Filed Aug 16, 2026 · Electrical · MO

My rear view camera shows a black screen when the vehicle is put in reverse. It is not a fuse problem. That has been checked. I have resorted to “the old fashioned way” of looking behind either side when backing up. It’s just terrifying because you can’t see all that the rear view camera shows and since it’s not working I don’t get the noise alerts when getting close to something

Every day when I backup my 2019 Dodge Journey I can not use my rear view mirror to safely backup ? Why ? Because the rear view camera which is still is in recall status is located within the rear view mirror and blocks out my ability to use the mirror. How much longer will I have to wait for Chrysler to rectify this safety hazard ? Don't tell me soon. I have had this issue for 2 years now. I received the recall notice a year ago.

I recently received a safety recall in the mail from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles stating that the rearview camera in my vehicle, a 2019 Dodge Journey Crossroad, needed to be replaced, as they were found to be defective and in violation of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. I scheduled an appointment at my local Dodge dealer, Dayton Andrews Dodge, on Friday 07/31 for 0745 on 08/03 for this replacement. After dropping off my vehicle at the appointed date and time and being brought back to my house by their "shuttle," a consumer grade minivan which I shared with four other passengers, I received a call at approximately 12:30 pm, where I was told they had "evaluated" my vehicle to determine whether or not I needed to have my backup camera replaced, determined that it needed replacement, and that they would need to order the backup camera and related parts which would arrive in a few days, at which time I could bring my car in again to actually have it installed. This made no sense, since this was a MANDATORY safety recall, and not replacing the backup camera was never an option for them, yet they booked my appointment knowing they did not have the part in stock. I was never once told that this appointment would be anything but getting the backup camera replaced, and if its efficacy was in question, they could have easily asked me on the phone if it was working properly (it has not functioned properly for years), or looked at the blank screen while the vehicle was in reverse upon my arrival at the dealership, then sent me on my way. Instead, I was duped into wasting an entire day of my life for my vehicle to receive an "evaluation," which I was never once informed of nor gave consent to, but through which they had determined that my vehicle required a fluids flushing and spark plug replacement for approximately $1100. This is obviously fraud being perpetrated to get people to purchase unnecessary, overpriced repairs.

The backup camera will sometimes show inverted colors, the display will be flipped upside down, the display will flash, or it will be entirely black. This is unsafe because it makes it harder to identify hazards behind the vehicle when reversing. This issue happens at least half the time the car is put into reverse. This issue seems the same as recall 25E052 , but my vehicle is not being shown as included in this recall.

The backup camera does not display correctly. When the car is put in reverse we get a picture of a camera with a line through it. This problem is very similar to what is in recall 59c but does not include our vin number.

Rear backup camera is consistently distorted, inverted, or has a black or blue screen.

The backup camera has been an issue since I bought this vehicle back around 2020. It first would go in and out to black and now it's fully upside down at all times. I thought a recall had been issued but my vehicle doesn't qualify for some reason which is very frustrating. It's very unsafe, especially when I have a [XXX] old trying to "permit" drive in this vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I purchased my 2019 dodge journey in 2022 and about two months maybe after purchasing it, my backup camera went out. At first, it came in and out- only working occasionally. But then it completely stopped and hasn’t worked since. There’s a line through the image where the camera use to show up in the mirror. I understand some 2019 dodge journeys has recalls for this, but not my VIN. So I wanted to report that this one also has the same issue.
