Hi Cindy,

I have noticed that, and it was mostly at night as it appears to be nighttime in your pictures. My last car a 2015 ford explorer was much clearer. I did wipe down my camera lens with a soft cloth and it did not help. They might all be like this since we both appear to have the same amount of fuzziness.

wiping it down does no good, I have the service mgr digging into it....it is awful at night!

You might try replacing the back-up lamps with LEDs. There is a YouTube video out there about how it is done. More light should help the camera a lot.

As a test for tailLeRoy"s suggestion (which I agree with) you could go somewhere at night where there is more ambient light and see if the back camera is able to more clearly focus. If it does then you have a viable solution.

GREAT, thanks so much, will let all know!

Judging from blurry text on backup camera screen - the photos you took are blurry by itself and are not representative or real fuzziness. That's my remark for future readers to not get a wrong idea looking at photos.
That been said I know what you mean about night backup camera - it's due to low light and sensor is way too small to capture image in sharp crisp resolution - hence that fuzzy image. It improves as more light becomes available.

Change the backup bulb to a high performance good white light LED

sorry but the photos are not blurry, night backup looks exactly like that, my Outback had a great camera...day and night.

Are you saying blurry text itself on your picture that reads: "Check surroundings for your safety" - is exactly like that on display?!! Then it's your display that is faulty.
Please don't tell me you don't see blurry text on your picture I posted below??!!

Have you tried adjusting the contrast?
Look at quick reference guide page 2-6&7
Seems if it was the display everything would be
hazy or blurred. Or is it like what DAN said and everything on display is blurred.
Does other functions look good on the display?
Looks like blurry text in your picture is camera you used just didn't focus right

The image is ridiculous. Comparing to my 2017 Explorer, the backup camera of the Palisade at night has the quality of a 1930s camera.
