Description of the problem | The back up display screen becomes unusable as a result of the touch sensitive sensors becoming visible, thus interfering with the rear back up camera image. It is especially dangerous in bright sunlight making the rear back up camera useless. It also impacts the ability to read any of the controls on the screen, however not being able to identify objects when backing up we believe is a serious issue. The dealer has been great and has replaced two of them at no charge. However this is clearly a defect in the touch sensitive screen. |
