The front facing camera and the rear backup camera and the entire camera system is intermittent. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. You become a bit dependent on the backup camera and when it does not work & it causes undue stress especially if you are handicapped in the neck turning area. The problem has not been taken to a dealer yet because they cost is prohibitive to just drive it in the door. When the failure occurs, there is a red triangle and a camera with a red circle with a red line through it. This is a documented problem (TSB 23-NA-062) with this model vehicle and should be made a recall. Many others have reported this same issue. Chevrolet will not fix it without cost of up to $1500 or more if the car is out of the 36K warranty
