Takata recall: correction for complaint #11164408. rear view camera remains in the reverse position when i shift from reverse to drive. consequently, i am driving with a view of the road behind me. this has happen three times. i reported this to acura of peora, az. they kept my car for a day but didn't resolve the problem. i was told they were contacting acura headquarters and would get back to me because they couldn't replace a $3000 system without approval from acura headquarters.
After switching to drive from reverse the nav display would not switch back from the back up camera while driving ahead, when a car would be anywhere near mine on the road, still in drive, whether idle at a stop light or in motion on the street, the back up sensors that respond to passing cars did not beep. i tried pressing the back button, nav button, settings button & turning the car on/off all failing to fix the problem. the camera remained on even while in park once i arrived home.
