Consumer Description
The rear camera required by the DOT presents a distorted image making objects appear farther away than they actually are. The problem is a commonly discussed topic as an issue with the camera software on multiple Taycan Forums. See: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/backup-camera-quality-to-improve.6423/page-3#post-91894 The safety of persons standing to close to the vehicle may be impacted as the driver would think they are father away from the vehicle. Damage to property can occur by relying on the image and hitting an object that appears farther away than it is. I backed up into a garage pillar support which presented being farther away from the vehicle than it was causing US$2,500 to repair. The vehicle has not been inspected, this is a widely complained about issue among Taycan owners See the Taycan Forum https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/backup-camera-quality-to-improve.6423/page-3#post-91894
