What Happened

The rearview camera in your vehicle is like a digital eye that shows you what's behind you. In certain 2024-2025 Buick and Chevrolet models, this camera screen might show a distorted or blank image.

Risk if Unfixed

If the rearview camera screen isn't working correctly, you'll have a reduced view of what's behind your vehicle. This could increase the risk of a crash, especially when reversing.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your dealership will inspect your rearview camera and replace it if necessary, all at no cost to you. You'll be notified by mail with a specific schedule, and you should contact the dealership to arrange the repair.
