Backup camera crooked?
I will work on getting pictures. I feel like my backup camera is crooked. Is anyone else having this issue? The camera housing on the bumper looks straight to me, so I wonder if the lens may be wrong? When I position myself with the guidelines from the camera parallel to a curb or parking line, the car ends up crooked in the spot. If I set my car parallel to the lines, then the lines on the camera are visually crooked with respect to the parking spot.
Has anyone else had any issues with this? I have a 2015 Chrysler 200 and the backup camera there is perfectly aligned. Could my perspective be off due to the different front and rear track width? I am going to spend some more time on this, I just need to find a place where nobody can see me attempt and reattempt backing into a parking space for a long time.

Mine is the same thing as yous. I use the rear camera to get in the spot and look out the windshield to see if I am straight.

Mine is the same way! If I ever tried to back into a spot using only the backup camera I'd probably end up doing a loop and a barrel roll before parking on my passenger door.
I find it to be very useful for seeing what is behind me, and how close to something I am, but for figuring out if I'm straight I need the wing mirrors as well. Between all 3 I can back in really well. Whiskey |
