NHTSA complaint #11753702 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
My rear-view (back-up) camera displays the image “reversed” when I put the vehicle in reverse, meaning the direction of what I see doesn’t match the direction the vehicle is actually moving. This is dangerous because it can confuse the driver when judging distances and steering or aligning the car while backing up, increasing the risk of hitting a person, child, or parked object—especially in tight spaces, at low speeds, or when visibility is limited (night, rain, or glare). I’m requesting inspection and corrective action to ensure the camera feed is properly oriented and reliable before the vehicle is used for reversing maneuvers.
