I was driving 50mph and was behind a semi as I started to pass him I noticed an oncoming car and decided there wasnt enough time to pass so I started to push the brake pedal to slow down and get back behind the semi and the brakes locked up which produced an uncontrollable spin in which I did a 180 degree spin and ended up going into the ditch backwards and tipped over on my side no airbags deployed either.

Display screen to bright when vehicle is in reverse. When putting vehicle in reverse the backup camera display is so bright you can not see your exterior mirrors or out any of the windows to see surrounding area. This is very unsafe condition because you are blinded while backing up. When took the truck to dealership I was told they can't duplicate this. And have had no other complaints"?"

On screen display for backup camera. When putting the vehicle in reverse, the on screen display is so bright that you can't see out the windows, the rearview mirrors or the surrounding area. This display does not dim with the rest of the lights. This causes a severe safety hazard when trying to backup the vehicle.
