Shortly after taking delivery of our new car, the camera system for the rear backup camera and all other surround view cameras malfunctioned. Upon shifting into reverse the screen that would normally show the rear of the car and the car's surroundings was all white. Changing the camera view did not fix the problem. The system functioned normally the next time we started the car, but then failed again later the next day. The failure in the camera system makes backing out of the garage and a public parking space less safe. It is also extremely annoying for this to happen on a new car when the cameras would be especially helpful while getting used to the new nightlines. There were no alerts in the car either time the failure occurred. The dealer was unable to replicate the failure, but states the manufacturer is aware of it. At this time, they do not have a fix and we are left with a car without a reliably operable backup camera.
