The rear back-up camera on this model of vehicle provides a very poor image at night creating a clear safety hazard. The image that appears on the screen is almost not discernible and virtually impossible to make out any images. We also own a 2010 Acura tsx that has a back up camera which works very well at night. One would think that a newer and higher end vehicle would offer at the very least a comparable quality camera. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer which has noted similar concerns from other customers but they note there is nothing they can do to fix the problem. The inferior quality of the camera and associated lighting place any driver relying on it in a dangerous position. This situation should be investigated to ensure no accidents occur as a result of the inferior back up camera.
