Sensing System Camera Problems of Mitsubishi Outlander

The rear backup camera on this vehicle is excessively dim and difficult to see under normal daylight and ambient lighting conditions. The camera image is so dark that it significantly impairs the ability to detect obstacles, pedestrians, and other hazards behind the vehicle when reversing. This is a safety defect because the backup camera is federally-mandated safety equipment under fmvss 111. The vehicle has no brightness or display settings available to correct the issue. The problem appears to be present from the factory. No aftermarket solutions are available to correct the factory camera output. The problem has been present since the vehicle was new and is consistent, not intermittent. The issue creates a hazardous condition any time the vehicle is reversed, as the camera does not adequately display what is behind the vehicle.
