My fuel light came on and I stopped to fill up with gas. While pumping, the pump clicked off multiple times. I knew it was not full. I got it to 17 gallons and left.

The backup camera on my 2021 Velar has stopped functioning. Service confirmed not a wiring issue and claims it is the NFSM Module not functioning correctly. There are several recalls on the module that include the model and year of my Velar. Although my VIN number is not included in the recall, it is highly suspect that it is a known faulty module for the year and model amongst other models from 2020-2024. It is a safely hazard and one that should not fall under the consumers responsibility. This make, model, year and VIN needs to be added to the recall. Please do the right thing and have it included in the recall. Thank you!
