1 Sensing System Camera problem of the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica

Failure Date: 07/12/2026

I took the van to get the safety recall done in 2026, Feb 25. For the rear view back up camera. I took it to the same dealership that I bought the car from, jones junction. However, upon further complications with the back up camera, this issue has never been fixed or resolved. If anything, the issue has become worse. I am unable to use my camera 98% of the time. It freezes. It goes black or is unavailable to see anything out of. It's a safety recall for a reason. I want this issue fixed. As I have been driving like this with the issue for quite some time. What are my next steps? I prefer not to have to dealer hop if I can help it. But I might have to. Is there a patch they may have to do to re-install the software for the camera? or would they have to go and flash it again and what ever else? my true gut tells me that I dont think this specific dealership ever did the recall, correctly.

2 Sensing System Camera problem of the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica

Failure Date: 06/17/2026

The backup camera rarely works anymore. It will show a variety of the following: - a blue screen - a black screen - a still image - it works correctly (rarely happens). The still image is a great cause of concern for safety. It still shows the guiding lines as I am moving the steering wheel, so it almost looks like I am moving in real-time. If the still image is showing nothing behind my vehicle, it could cause me to back over something/someone because camera did not display real-time video. (attached photos show a vehicle behind my car, but when I turn on the camera, there is a still image. The third image shows the guide turning on the still image). Dealer has stated it is a known issue, but there is not a recall. Many reports of this issue can be found in online forums. Vehicle has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, or insurance. There were no warning lamps or other symptoms prior to the failure. Issue has been intermittent for about a month.
