Consumer Description

I HAVE OWNED THIS VECHICLE SINCE IT WAS NEW. KIA HAS REPLACED AT LEAST 3 REAR VIEW CAMERAS IN MY REAR LIFT GATE. THE LAST ONE WAS ON 2/10/2016. NOW THIS CAMERA IS MALFUNCTIONING, ALL I SEE IS INTERFERENCE. I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING PASSING ACROSS THE REAR OF MY VECHICLE LIKE A CHILD OR SHORT ADULT. KIA CAN'T DEVELOP A FUNCTIONING CAMERA SO THEYSHOULD HAVE TO KEEP REPLACING THEM UNTIL THEY DO. I WOULDN'T HAVE PURCHASED THIS VECHICLE WITHOUT A CAMERA IT'S REAR WINDOW IS VERY HIGH. THIS IS A DAILY ONGOING PROBLEM.
