Multipurpose camera facing front on top of windshield works intermittently. 20% of the time it works fine, usually the first drive of the morning when the car is cool. 80% of the time, within 60 seconds upon startup there are 5 bright orange warning lights that come on all related to a malfunction in the multipurpose camera. These are: Adaptive Cruise Control Failure, Collision Mitigation System Failure, Lane Keeping Assistance Problem, Road Departure Assistance Problem, Auto-High Beam failure. Most concerning is that the BRAKE SYSTEM light stays illuminated orange after these warnings come on. My car will not pass inspection if it happens to have these intermittent warnings happen that trip. This started 1 month ago, out of the blue. From what I read online in Reddit and ODY.com¦this multipurpose camera failure happens to many people at the 4-5 year mark. One person has a video posted about how its the camera overheating¦it becomes too hot to touch. If you pour water on the windshield outside it will cool it off enough to work again. I think this is a malfunction/manufacturing defect in the camera itself. It should not randomly fail after only 4-5 years. Its connected to all these vital safety systems. The repair cost quoted to me is $2686.88 + tax. This is SO expensive and I cannot afford to fix this. I dont need the camera because I learned to drive without all these features, but I cannot remove this option. So, Im stuck with having to pay a huge amount for something that is a manufacturing defect in the camera itself.
