Malfunction Rear View Camera
« on: 07 June 2010, 19:15 »
Here is my story:

After an aftermarket VW PDC instalment (dealer forgot the original to order!!!!) suddenly my rear view camera gives a black screen seconds after I pull it into reverse.....
The dealer says that's a coincidence and states he recognises the problem and blames the software and informs the importer.....

I have written an angry letter today to the importer/dealer that they sold me a non-functional rearview camera so I want compensation and a working rearviewcamera as quick as possible.....I think I am screwed since it is now June and the camera problems dates from the beginning of this year (to be read on fora....)

How is my legal situation.... :sad:

Any fellow-victims outthere..... :cry:

Well am1w it is not over yet...

Mind you they solved the ..uhhh...first problem the forgotten PDC quite generously...with a expensive remap (incl. lease adjusting 3035 euro) and a now propper working rear PDC....

So it is the camera as my main concern...get it working and get compensation...I have suggested PDC in the front...(as actually originally ordered) I know they cannot get that afterwards...... so my aim is that it becomes slowly but surely their problem....i

I wish you the very best of British luck! :smiley:
You need to get your rear end functioning quickly as you might damage it in the heat of the moment. Easily done. :embarassed: :grin:

Im also having problems with my retro fitted rear view camera.

Sometimes the screen goes black or doesnt work at all and then displays german maps!! but hopefully my new LED sat nav unit will cure all that. :smug:
