wingit11 Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 I have the same issue, but there is little that can be done as you cannot control the rain and road spray. It is going to get dirty. Wait till you drive in slush. You will not see anything. Just the way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubberdude88 Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Polish it with Rain-x. It helps a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larryl Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 The backup camera on the new Cherokee is very nice seems to be a far clearer and better picture than mine and the guidelines move as you turn etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinbill Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I too have had issues with the camera being coated with road debris. It was particularly bad this winter. I also found that road debris would affect the park assist sensors on the rear bumper as well, also requiring a wipe down. I keep a microfiber cloth in the vehicle to wipe the camera off but I like the idea of water repellant products as Forum members have mentioned. Thanks, guys, I will try them. PS: I wish Chrysler would just mount the camera higher on the door; it wouldn't eliminate the problem entirely but I think it would help.
