    No idea why BB allows vendors with no working website or phone numbers that work, but lists a msg warranty on their page. The product works fine, while it works. After 9 months, it starts turning off after a few minutes. I thought it was isolated problem and received a 2nd one. Trying another brand.

      Brand response from VanTop Team

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience.

      We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. Please follow these steps to troubleshoot.

      1. Confirm if the power supply of the car charger is always on. Plug it into the cigarette lighter. The light will flash if the supply is poor.
      2. Take out of the SD card and unplug the power cable. Then take the dashcam indoors and charge it with a 5V/3A adapter and a MINI USB cable for an hour to see if it can be turned on.
      3. Use a pin to reset the device directly. The reset hole is behind the camera. Then please enter Settings, choose factory settings to set the device to default.
      4. Unplug the rear camera kit to see if the front camera works well.

      Also, please check the USB port and the charging port, is there anything unusual?

      We are dedicated to ensuring your 100% satisfaction. Please reach out to us via support@vantop.com. We are more than happy to assist you further.

      We offer a 24-month warranty for this product, plus lifetime technical support. Our standard for responding to email quests is less than 24 hours, and we look forward to hearing from you! snaptain

    Very pricey, you can get a similar product for $60 if you don't mind a decrease in image quality and some lost features. Ended up going with this just because I'd rather not waste battery on my phone for GPS usage, the 4k quality is a nice addition though. Lastly, if you don't want to have cables all around your car, be prepared to take some extra time to install this, or pay someone else to do it.

    Great product with crystal clear HD image. I installed this on my pickup truck and the front and review cameras are a must have. Record while you are driving just in case you get into an accident. Love the split screen view as well. Automatically switches to full rear view when you put your vehicle in reverse

    I bought 2 of these for my wife and my cars. It worked well at first. Then, one of them couldn’t read the same microSD card it has been reading for months. We had to take the chip in and out many times before it could start recording. It eventually started working fine after months of this. The GPS unit in mine only worked about 10% of the time and then stopped working completely after a few months. Then, mine completely died after less than a year. I liked the front camera image quality and the controls were pretty good. Replacing it with a more expensive model with better track record.

    This is a great option for a camera and a backup camera for an older car. One warning is the backup camera is NOT water resistant. The first rain and the lens fogged over on the inside. I will try and seal it myself. Otherwise happy with the system.
