When going into reverse the reverse camera, and 360 cameras will lag significantly. In the best case situation you just slow down and let the cameras catch up. But some times it does not, then you have to put the truck back into park then launch the cameras again. This is also a large issue when parking next to close objects as the ultra sonics and cameras that show how close you are to object will also lag. This makes it hard to position the vehicle in situations where it is most needed. Software updates to date have done nothing to improve these experence.
