“I took the van to get the safety recall done in 2026, Feb 25. For the rear view back up camera. I took it to the same dealership that I bought the car from, Jones Junction. However, upon further complications with the back up camera, this issue has never been fixed or resolved. If anything, the issue has become worse. I am unable to use my camera 98% of the time. It freezes. It goes black or is unavailable to see anything out of. It's a safety recall for a reason. I want this issue fixed. As I have been driving like this with the issue for quite some time. What are my next steps? I prefer not to have to dealer hop if I can help it. But I might have to. Is there a patch they may have to do to re-install the software for the camera? Or would they have to go and flash it again and what ever else? My true gut tells me that I dont think this specific dealership ever did the recall, correctly.”

“My vehicle has no back up camera or blind spot warning. Took to dealer for recall and they said they were only responsible for a software update and not solving the recall problem. My vehicle still does not have either of these functions. I was told I would have to pay for the repairs for this recall.”
