The backup camera periodically freezes when you put the vehicle in reverse. Other times, the screen will stay black or just show the Nissan logo until you cycle power. The safety of all inside the vehicle and around the vehicle is at risk when the backup camera feed freezes, especially if the operator doesn't realize the feed is frozen. This vehicle is currently operated outside of the US but will be available for inspection upon return. The issue is intermittent so it has not been reproduced in the presence of any service center. There were no warning messages involved.

I was driving home and smelled burning rubber or plastic coming from my vent while my heat was on. The smell got stronger and stronger. I turn the heat off and only smelled it a little. I parked my vehicle and I am now in search of a mechanic.
