What's wrong, in plain English

A software error in the vehicle's infotainment system can prevent the backup camera's rearview image from appearing on the display. When this happens, the driver backing up does not get the rearview camera picture that the display is meant to show, even though the camera and display are otherwise working.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Mitsubishi dealer for the free software update; call MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820.
3. The repair is free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?
