Quick answer

According to FCA RECALL 25V552/59C/60C: "The rearview camera on your vehicle [1] may have thermal fatigue cracks in the microprocessor solder which can cause the rearview camera to display a blank/black/blue or inverted screen in place of the rearview image. A rearview image that is blank/black/blue or inverted reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. The condition above fails to comply with the requirements of FMVSS No. 571.111 S6.2.6 requires that "The rear visibility system default to the rearview image being visible and meet the requirements of FMVSS No. 571.111 S6.2.1 (field of view) and S6.2.2 (image size) at the beginning of each backing event, regardless of any modifications to the field of view that the driver had previously selected..." Suspect vehicles may not display the rearview image during a backing event under certain conditions."
