What owners wrote
Was in the car during a very slow, around 5mph front end collision. The knee airbag went off at low speed. I. Exited the vehicle to look at damage and then I sat back in the driver seat. Upon sitting back in the driver seat I noticed the smoke that had cleared from the airbag had started to build back up and became more dense.
Vehicle is unable to turn on back camera when putting the car into reverse. When put in reverse the screen says backup camera unavailable.
