    Good qauilty! But beeps too much. I wouldnt even be near a car and the dashcam starts to beep for me being “too close” to a car or not in between the lines (when I am). The beep is also really loud and disturbing.

    This camera is not always on so it doesn’t record every second you’re driving sadly you have to SPEAK TO IT to record and so far when I see accidents I’m in shock and have no time to speak to it as it only gives you 30 seconds

    Dead after a year. Will not stay on, even when plugged into an outlet. Also, the recordings do not seem to loop over each other on the card. Stopped recording after a few months but red recording light was still on. We had to reformat the SD card every day to ensure recording.

      We're happy to help resolve your experience. Power issues are easily resolved with simple troubleshooting. Stay away from a wall power block that isnt Garmin for the off chance power ratings dont meet or exceed the dash cams need. Sounds like you may also be experiencing an SD card issue. I recommend replacing with the few details provided here. However, for more in depth guidance start by visiting us at support.garmin.com. Garmin

    I'm having issues as some other owners. It keeps freezing / frozen / stuck either on the Garmin boot up or the "starting parking guard" notification. It's also giving me the format card error. I've swapped three different sd cards and they all have the same issues. The cards are supposed to cycle or constantly loop, so it erases earlier video saves, but this dash cam says the card is full. I have the Dashcam 57 in my other car and haven't run into any issues, so it might be this particular model or I just got a lemon. I'm going to take it back to the store and see if I can get it exchanged since it's under warranty and I have BB Protection.

    Easy to install... but the quality of this camera is no worth for its price. There are better cameras out there for the same price.
