Back up camera is annoying as hell

Hi everyone,

I've had my 2024 GLB for a few months now and the backup camera is seriously annoying. You can hear it pop in and out all the time when slowing down or stopping. At first i thought something was rolling around in the back until I sat in the back and realized it was the camera. The other problem is: I've had the backup camera not work a couple of times, the system telling me reverse is not possible.

The other thing that annoys me is the PLUS button in my station favorites always popping up which makes me have to swipe twice to change the station.

I mean who at mercedez thought that camera was a good idea?

GO to the GLB section and GLE and GLC other owners have been complaining for a while and I think they have fix from MB.

I traced down the posts on this topic and only saw frustration. No official fix noted. I have a New Mercedes with a camera popping in and out everytime I slow down or stop. Yay. The sound of something rolling around loose in the back all the time.

I mean I created an account JUST to point out this annoying as hell issue. Others have noted it as well. There is no fix. Not from MB.

December 2024: I'm in the same boat with my new 2024 GLB 250. Rear Camera operation at slow speeds.. noise is very annoying.
