HD Surround Vision Camera Problem

Been waiting about a month to get to the dealer to address what I thought would be simple software issue. Was told that my surround vision camera view is normal. (See pictures).

 

Quick backstory: I’ve owned my 2020 Silverado LTZ since Aug 2020 and I’m 99.99% certain that before the last automatic software update, my camera view was perfect. I first noticed the issue late March when I backed up into my normal parking space at work and I took out the curb with my right rear wheel! 
 

The rear view showed the curb spaced from the truck about 8 inches more than I actually had in relation to what the side view camera shows. The front camera has the same problem but not as much. 
 

For you guys with the surround vision on your trucks, how does it look? Does everything “line up” as it should? The dealer tech said there is nothing he can fix because the system shows no errors. Great.

My 19 looks like that too. Has since new.

Interesting. 
 

I’m certain mine was correct then something changed. I would have noticed this issue a long time ago if it’s how it came from the factory.

 

Strange thing is my wife’s 2018 traverse premier has surround vision and it is perfect all the way around with no distortion of any kind. If GM can get it right on this car, why not my truck? 
 

Seems like lazy software calibration done by a third-rate hack computer engineer at GM.

Z06…when new, my camera had sharp lines. After about a year of driving I noticed my lines are like yours. I was wondering if other people had this issue and the dealer would help correct the surround view. It’s definitely not as reliable anymore. 
 

just finding this thread now, sorry for joining late

2020 AT4.  My cameras now look like yours.  I'm pretty sure they use to be a lot closer in alignment.  Maybe a future software update could fix it?

Not sure if others in this forum had the 2" lift or bigger tires put on (I have the 2" lift), but they recalibrated them for my truck.  With that said a radio update came through and now it is misaligned.  Wonder if these updates are messing with us.

 

Otherwise the lifts without recals could be your problem.  The LTZ does not offer it off the bat so the updates may go back to original configuration.

Mine was off completely, no idea when it started. I had to bring the vehicle in to the dealer and had a VPCM or something like that replaced. 

 

Following is before and after. Not perfect, but a lot better.

Here is my "before" picture. I only have a painted line on the left, you have to use the seam in the asphalt on the right to see the misalignment (2022 2500HD). I will see if the Chevy dealer can reduce the error.

Any progress here? I noticed the same thing on my truck recently and asked my service department to look at it during my last oil change. They claimed they could find nothing wrong.

Keep in mind the overhead or airplane view is not an actual photo but a computer-generated image so it will not be precise. Lines in the side cameras actual vision range will be correct but beyond that it's a simulation.

That's not what we're talking about.  We're talking about the overlap areas between the adjacent cameras.  They appear to have become skewed after the recent update.  Previously the lines within a parking space were all correctly aligned between the various cameras.  Now some of the lines are offset and do not track from camera to camera.  Something has changed in the camera alignment algorithm.

      Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.

      The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts.

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.

      Multigate electrical problem

      By Another JR · Posted

      The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.
