Backup camera failure. Camera fault detected error message. Possibly caused by water intrusion
Summary: Remote start causes repeated, predictable failure of critical safety systems including traction control, hill descent control, and automatic emergency braking. Description of Problem: When the vehicle is started using the factory app for phones, the lower infotainment screen (the climate/drive assist panel) frequently fails to initialize properly. As a result, the icons and functions for Traction Control, Hill Descent Control do not illuminate or activate. The vehicle then displays warnings such as “Hill Descent Control Not Available” and “Automatic Braking Not Available.” This failure occurs approximately 99% of the time when using remote start. If I begin driving with the vehicle in this state, all of these systems remain deactivated. These features are essential for safe driving especially in winter conditions yet the malfunction leaves the vehicle without stability control, hill descent functionality, and automatic braking assistance.

I am writing to bring to your attention a series of critical malfunctions I have experienced with the InControl Touch Pro infotainment system in my 2020 Range Rover Velar. The persistent issues outlined below pose a significant safety risk and warrant immediate action through a comprehensive vehicle recall. USB Connectivity Static: When utilizing the USB connection, the audio output is excessively staticky, compromising the overall driving experience and distracting while driving. Navigation Screen Freezing and Blackout: The navigation screen frequently freezes and blacks out during operation, particularly while driving. This not only hampers the navigational capabilities of the vehicle but also raises serious safety concerns as it interrupts the focus on the road. Real-time Display Failure While Reversing: The infotainment system fails to provide real-time visuals while reversing, as the screen freezes. This deficiency nearly resulted in a collision with a pedestrian at a grocery store I was at when...
I IMMEDIATELY HAD PROBLEMS WITH ELECTRICAL. WARNING SYSTEMS INTERMITTENTLY NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, SCREEN RANDOMLY CHANGING DURING DRIVING AND DEFAULTING TO SETTINGS THAT REQUIRE ME TO PULL OVER, STOP CAR AND RESTART AS IN REBOOTING A COMPUTER. LANE KEEP ASSIST INTERMITTENT. BRIGHTS INTERMITTENT. CAR POWERS DOWN ENTIRELY ABOUT 50% OF TIME WHEN I OUT IT IN PARK...EVEN WITHOUT TAKING SEATBELT OFF. MAP WILL SUDDENLY SWITCH TO ENTRY SCREEN ASKING ME TO SIGN IN WHEN I ALREADY HAVE AND LISTS ADDRESSES I'VE NEVER BEEN TO. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING. ALL HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING, PARKING OR TURNING EXCEPT OF COURSE THE POWERING DOWN IN PARK. BTW, I DON'T MEAN IDLING DOWN WHICH IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO, IT SHUTS OFF. DEALER HAS REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING. IT HAS BEEN IN SHOP 4 TIMES AND THEY SAY THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEMS EVEN THOUGH I HAVE VIDEOTAPE AND PHOTOGRAPHS AND WITNESSES.
