NHTSA Complaint #11162402 — 2015 BMW M4

THIS ISSUE AFFECTS VEHICLES MOVING IN REVERSE AT NIGHT. THE REAR VIEW CAMERA IMAGE AT NIGHT IS VERY DARK AND OBJECTS CANNOT BE SEEN. THE ISSUE IS SEEN ON WHITE OR LIGHT COLOR VEHICLES WHEN THE LIGHT FROM THE LICENSE PLATE REFLECT ON THE BUMPER CAUSING THE CAMERA NOT TO FOCUS PROPERLY. WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED OFF AND THE LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS TURN OFF THE REAR VIEW CAMERA HAS A BETTER VIEW. TURNING OFF THE HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO DISTINGUISH OBJECTS AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. PLEASE ASK BMW TO CORRECT. I HAVE A COUPLE OF OPTIONS THAT I CAN SUGGEST BUT WILL DEFER TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR THE FINAL SOLUTION.
