Owner Narrative
THE REARVIEW CAMERA OF MY HONDA ODYSSEY 2014 ETOURING MINIVAN BLACKS OUT INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I AM PARALLEL PARKING, WHICH INVOLVES SHIFTING GEARS QUICKLY IN AND OUT OF REVERSE AND DRIVE. ONCE THE SCREEN BLACKS OUT, IT SAYS BLACK UNLESS I RESTART THE ENGINE AND IT GETS STRESSFUL WHEN YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF PARALLEL PARKING ON A BUSY STREET WITH CARS WAITING BEHIND YOU AND YOU CAN'T SEE THE REAR OF THE CAR. I PURCHASED A CAR WITH A REARVIEW CAMERA SPECIFICALLY ON PURPOSE DUE TO MY YOUNG CHILDREN IN ADDITIONAL TO LIVING ON A STREET WITH A K-1ST GRADE SCHOOL WHERE THERE IS A LOT OF TRAFFIC WITH YOUNG KIDS. THIS IS MY SECOND VEHICLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND BOTH CARS DEMONSTRATED THE REARVIEW CAMERA BLACKOUT ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE HONDA AND MY LOCAL DEALER INSTRUCTED BY HONDA NOW REFUSES TO TAKE IN MY CAR TO REGISTER OR RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHERE A LARGE MINIVAN FAILS TO PROVIDE A FULLY RELIABLE AND FUNCTIONING REARVIEW CAMERA WHICH IS LEGALLY REQUIRED TO DO SO BY 2018 ANYWAYS. HONDA REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE DEFECT OR FULLY SOLVE THIS RECURRENT PROBLEM ON MANY DIFFERENT DATES.
