The screen began glitching for a week. By the end of the week, the middle of the screen turn back. It is a hazard when reversing as you cannot see pedestrians or how far objects are due to the blackout. Moreover, when using navigation, the road for traffic is not visible so it is a safety hazard.

The screen for the back-up camera doesn't work at all. The touch screen still works if you know where everything should be on the display but there's is no visual input at all. Just a black screen. This is exceptionally dangerous in such a large vehicle because backing up without that camera could result in serious injury or death of pedestrians, especially children.
