750K+ Audi and Volvo Units Bricked by Camera Failures
Audi and Volvo are issuing separate recalls affecting over 750,000 vehicles—different root causes, same result: rearview camera blackouts. Both manufacturers are scrambling with dealer fixes, though the scope suggests this wasn't caught in development. If your A4, Q5, or XC90 is suddenly flying blind in reverse, you're in the queue.
Mass recalls on safety-critical systems like this should tell you something about where QA actually lives at the bean counter level—it's not in the engineering shop.
