Service bulletin LTB00683NAS1

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

"SITUATION: ON VEHICLES FITTED WITH THE SINGLE REAR VIEW CAMERA-ONLY SYSTEM, THE TOUCH SCREEN (TS) DISPLAY IMAGE FOR THE REAR VIEW CAMERA INTERMITTENTLY MAY APPEAR TO BE 'OVEREXPOSED' (TOO BRIGHT) AFTER SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION INTO REVERSE (R). THE IMAGE WILL RETURN TO NORMAL BRIGHTNESS ON THE NEXT VEHICLE START-UP. CAUSE: THIS MAY BE CAUSED IF REVERSE (R) GEAR IS SELECTED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE ENGINE IS STARTED AND BEFORE THE HOME SCREEN HAS APPEARED ON THE TOUCH SCREEN WHERE THE TOUCH SCREEN'S BACKLIGHT AUTOMATICALLY USES A DEFAULT MAXIMUM LIGHT LEVEL REGARDLESS OF AMBIENT LIGHT LEVELS. THIS RESULTS IN THE REAR VIEW CAMERA IMAGE TO APPEAR 'OVEREXPOSED' (TOO BRIGHT)."
