Noticed after a drive in the rain the camera view on the front was blurred. Figured I needed to wipe off the lens and found there is a crack in the cover and it had water in it. After it dried out somewhat, the camera view is normal again. Since I've had the car for over 2 months, I hope they will cover this under warranty but doubt it.

Ouch, right on the lens at least the paint is fine.

They might, but Insurance should cover it under Comprehensive coverage.

I hadn't considered that. Since I have a $500 deductible, it will depend on what the bill is. I'm still hoping I can get them to do it under warranty since it was a CPO.
That looks like a rock hit it, not a defect that would be covered under warranty. I'm betting $1000+ for parts & labor as the camera itself is $620 on MB Parts. You can buy them on eBay for a lot less, but who knows if they're of the same quality.
It's hard to tell for sure but this is from a picture I took the day I brought it home. Maybe it has been broken since I got it? We will see....
I found a small ding on passenger side door a few days after taking delivery. My salesman, as a curtosey to me, had taken photos when it arrived on the trailer, and shortly after taking it off, and removing packing materials. Sure enough, they found it in the photos, and took care of it. Perhaps yours did the same. Good luck!!

Yes! Hopefully for OP's sake.
