REARVIEW MIRROR CAMERA NOT WORKING

2019 DODGE JOURNEY

Filed Aug 3, 2026


I recently received a safety recall in the mail from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles stating that the rearview camera in my vehicle, a 2019 Dodge Journey Crossroad, needed to be replaced, as they were found to be defective and in violation of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. I scheduled an appointment at my local Dodge dealer, Dayton Andrews Dodge, on Friday 07/31 for 0745 on 08/03 for this replacement. After dropping off my vehicle at the appointed date and time and being brought back to…

The contact owns a 2019 Dodge Journey. The contact stated that while reversing, the rear-view camera displayed a black screen. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with a failure of the rear-view camera. The contact was informed that the rear-view camera needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that parts were ordered to repair the vehicle. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V552000 (Back Over Prevention).…

2019 DODGE JOURNEY

Filed Aug 1, 2026


The backup camera will sometimes show inverted colors, the display will be flipped upside down, the display will flash, or it will be entirely black. This is unsafe because it makes it harder to identify hazards behind the vehicle when reversing. This issue happens at least half the time the car is put into reverse. This issue seems the same as recall 25E052 (https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2025/RCLRPT-25E052-7447.pdf), but my vehicle is not being shown as included in this recall.

2019 DODGE JOURNEY

Filed Jul 30, 2026


This car is a 2019. The transmission was replaced when it was just one year old. The transmission is now needing to be replaced again. The transmission issue has also caused the drive shaft to need replacing as well. The flag shaft in the engine had to be replaced twice in one year costing over $1,000 each time. I believe these vehicles should have more active recalls. In doing research this is an issue that many owners of this car face. I have had this vehicle for only 3 years and I am…

2016 DODGE JOURNEY

Filed Jul 29, 2026


An authorized Dodge dealer replaced the original rearview backup camera under warranty in 2021 with Mopar replacement part 56054158AG. The replacement camera later became inoperative, displaying a black or distorted image and eventually no usable rearview image when the vehicle is shifted into reverse. I later received an official FCA US owner notification for Mopar replacement camera part 56054158AG under Safety Recall 60C (NHTSA Recall 25E-052). The owner notification states that the remedy…

The approximate failure mileage was 73,000.

2016 DODGE JOURNEY

Filed Jul 23, 2026


The rearview camera of my Dodge Journey, without warning, displayed an inverted screen in place of the rearview image. A rearview image that is blank/black/blue or inverted reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. I have received two safety recall letters from FCA describing this exact issue, but the recall does not show when searching via my vehicle's VIN. I took the vehicle to a local CJDR dealership, and the rearview camera needed to be…
