Vehicle Identification Number 1G1YC3D4XP5****
Summary of Complaint
The reverse camera works intermittently, but fails more often than it works properly.
Able to reset by shutting car off and leaving door open for 90 seconds, then restarting.
Works for that ignition/drive cycle, but then becomes unreliable again after next startup. The car is a week old.
Have not brought to dealer yet for warranty claim, however as this is a required safety system I am reporting it.

Vehicle Identification Number 1G1YB2D42P5****
Summary of Complaint
The vehicle has had rear and front camera failure within 72 hours of me buying it (91 miles); and I let my sales guy know, we decided to bring it by the dealership one day when it is malfunctioning.
I got it to act up that Saturday 3/18/23 with 123 miles, and it showed 2 DTC's (B1A62 and U0131), but with a limited staff, they had no one to look at it. Still not upset, I said whatever and figured I would just drive it and bring it back during the weekdays
It happened again this morning on the way to work, and I took it right in; they were able to scan it again and show the fault codes.
This is where it gets really upsetting; the tool/adapter they need to test the AV cable is showing June 16th ship date. I sell cars for a living also, and this is something I would never expect a customer to just deal with and wait.
I literally can't drive the car in and out of my driveway without the camera system.
My wife almost ran into the door because the camera does not work. My fear is a child could be hit or run over, and I can't believe General Motors is ok with a new vehicle being sold, failing immediately after delivery, and having no way to fix the problem.
I have contacted someone at GM corporate, and they also instructed me to wait for diagnostic.
This is a concern on other Corvettes, and not the first instance of this happening.
