Qx80 backup camera Disappointment

My review is negative because of the car quality not the overall company because I had a great experience with the local dealer here. I'm very disappointed with the QX80 2018: Quality of the backup camera and the 360 degrees cameras, this is by far the worst quality of cameras in the car market! It looks like a camera from 10 years ago. The car also love gas too much, I'm averaging 11 miles in the city and 13.5 in the highway, I had big engine cars all my life and this car is the worst in that department. You would expect when you pay over 75k for a car with normal backup camera, that's my biggest complaint with the car!!! At night you can’t even see anything.

After 2 years and 30K miles we started having engine noise. It sounded like the valve train was ticking. We ended up bringing the vehicle back at 50K and they scoped the number 7 cylinder and found no scarring. The noise kept getting louder. We went back a third time after the factory warranty had past and they found scarring and replaced the engine only after the original warranty ended. Thank goodness we purchased Certified at 12K and added the elite wrap protection. At 87000 we needed a new air compressor, seat heater elements, running board approach lights. We are now selling as our wrap coverage is due to end.

After getting the dealer to make the major repairs needed for my vehicle, I’m please with the vehicle. I’ve had it for about a year now and so far it’s done well. I will be taking it out on the highway this summer so we’ll see how it goes.

2 Day Drive to the Mountains

Rented this car for a 2 day mountain trip. When I first stepped into the car, the traction control off light was on. The car also shifts really weird in Auto, 4H or 4L modes. It either jerks you right off your seat when you step on it or shifts too quickly to where you can feel the automatic transmission shifting 5x in one second. Brakes were also difficult to control as the downshifting also made the car jerk as it is slowing down. Car reached 5200rpm at 72 mph, with a redline at about 6200rpm, which made me afraid to push the car any harder as I was afraid it might blow up at a higher speed. This big SUV also loves to guzzle gas and we were down to a quarter of a tank after 2.5 hr drive. The visibility to the outside was good and it was comfortable for passengers not in the back row, but the interior was kind of small considering the huge size of the car. Barely able to fit 6 adults with luggage. HVAC is finickly and seems to be "hunting" the correct setpoint temperature as you get frequent waves of hot air followed by cold air without touching the controls.
