Mirrors constantly displayed that an object was in the blind spot sensor range. Ongoing problem. Sensors had to be replaced requiring the removal and replacement of the entire rear bumper fascia. Voice command system failed. Ongoing problem. Once activated, the system would hang for several minutes and prevent any audio from working. Each time, I would have to wait until the function would time out on its own before being able to interact with the audio system. Failed backup camera.
Camera had been flaky to say the least. IT it would work at all, it was only momentary when the vehicle would be first placed into reverse. The image would then go completely dark (black) for the duration. The problem had become progressively worse, finally no camera operation at all for many months.
