What this recall means for you
The rearview camera, or 360-degree view camera where equipped, may fail to display an image when the vehicle is put in reverse. Without that image, the driver has reduced view behind the vehicle.
Loss of the rearview camera picture reduces rear visibility, which increases the risk of a crash while backing up.
Authorized dealers will replace the rearview camera and update software and wiring as needed, at no cost to the owner. Parts were expected to be available in the second quarter of 2024. Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
