Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)Mercedes Benz 2016 GLE450 AMG Coupe Backup Camera issue. The software problems cause backup camera to go blank /black screen. It does this randomly, it can worked for few weeks to a month, then suddenly just goes blank/black when the gear is in reverse (R). I have made complained to Mercedes Benz dealer when the issue first started and I was told that the year of my vehicle is not listed in the recall that was issued for the Mercedes Benz with backup camera issues, the recall was listed for 2019-2021. I was told that I have to wait until there is a recall for the 2016 GLE450 AMG Coupe.
WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED EVERY TIME, THE MESSAGE "COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST PLUS INOPERATIVE. CHECK THE MANUAL" IS APPEARING. THERE ARE NO KNOWN DAMAGES AND IT APPEARED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED AFTER PARKING(IN STATIONARY). NO KNOWN CAUSES FOR DAMAGE OF THE SENSOR. DEALER IS ASKING FOR CHECKING THE ISSUE $157 AND MOSTLY SAYS IT IS A SOFTWARE GLITCH. WHY AS A CUSTOMER I SHOULD PAY FOR THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT?
