This Problem Across All Years
For the past 6 months, the monitor in my SUV wont come on when I turn on the truck. Even when I turn the vehicle off, remove the key and step out of the vehicle, it will still do it until like the I next day. Often, still, when I am putting my car in reverse, the camera does not work. Very often. This put the safety of me and my children at risk as this is not what I am accustomed to as far as safety is concerned. I took the car to Mercedes Benz dealership here in Augusta GA and showed multiple videos of the screen not coming on or not working when I had it in reverse, they were to charge me $6000 to get this fixed at no fault of my own. There were not prior warnings. But what was odd was when I typed in my VIN number into the Mercedes Benz website, the recalled appear. When I called Mercedes Benz, it was stated that my vehicle was not apart of the recall with the same exact problem.

In July 2021, Mercedes notified me of NHTSA Recall #21V354 n certain MY 2019-2021 Mercedes-Benz vehicles listed above, under certain conditions, the MBUX multimedia system might not start and the display might remain black, or could reboot unintentionally after 50 seconds of initial startup. Accordingly, the rearview camera image might not be displayed or the display might be interrupted which could reduce the driver’s rear view, and increase the risk of a crash or injury. Mercedes indicated the update would be pushed to the car Over the Air (OTA). More than a year later, the update still has not been pushed OTA. I took the car to the Mercedes dealer that I bought the car from and they were unable to install the update either. It's apparent that Mercedes OTA process does not work for all vehicles, and Mercedes has provided me no method by which I can get the update completed.
