NHTSA Complaint #11486160 — 2018 JEEP COMPASS

The vehicle has a backup camera that works intermittently, but frequently shows either a black screen or a frozen image. I have scheduled service at the local dealership on two occasions, had to wait at least two weeks both times because the dealership could not work us in quicker. The camera started operating a day or two before the appointment on both occasions, so the dealership didn't do anything but verify that the camera is operating correctly. Note that this problem is recurring, but the intermittent nature has prevented any real diagnosis by the dealership. There are numerous anecdotal stories on the internet regarding this issue, but there does not appear to be any action by the manufacturer. Also, it is hard to get clear pictures of the screen, but I attached two with the hopes that they help. One basically shows the screen while the other shows the indicator is in reverse.
