Lexus Integrated Dashcam

0 STARS! I regret buying the Lexus Dashcam. It simply does not work the way it should. In order to even view recordings, I have to disconnect my Apple CarPlay, which is a huge inconvenience. The system is unbearably slow—live view never loads, and most of my files won’t load at all. I can’t just log into the app to check recordings because nothing shows up there. Instead, I’m forced to connect directly to the dashcam, and even then, only a few recordings actually load. For the high price I paid, this is by far the worst money I’ve spent. The product is unreliable, frustrating, and not worth the cost. Lexus should stand behind their product and offer refunds because I would gladly return this dashcam if I could.

New GX550 owner. Would love to be able to download and share videos with others. Not available in the app. In fact, downloading videos is quite slow and files aren’t accessible outside of the app without pulling the SD card from the camera and using a PC to read the card. App is clunky and it’s hard to exit a video file once you start playing. No way to edit videos or stitch together 2 minute clips. Disappointing.

I’ve had a tx500h for about 3 months now. DashCam seemed to be installed properly at first and I haven’t had a reason to check into it again, I have assumed it was working properly. This morning I encountered a crazy driver who was very erratic and driving dangerously and I was glad to have the factory dashcam. Pulled over to view and the app says dashcam not connected. The light is green on the dashcam itself, as it has been all along. I’ve tried all morning to connect, and after a long wait “connecting” it always says not connected! There are no recordings or anything available. Biggest waste of $400 ever. Do not bother! Lexus car app is a joke too. Do yourself a favor and get a BMW. This was my first - and will be my last - Lexus. What a joke.
