- Dash Cam
- Iroad 3300CH, G1W-c, Mobius C, A119 v1 & v3, A118-c2
Some time ago, on an automotive forum, a poster mentioned his expensive dash cam broke down a year after use and has purchased less expensive ones.
For myself, my Jaewoncnc Iroad Ione-3300CH 2CH two channel dash cam has experienced a number of issues

- GPS stopped working. For my iroad, the speed doesn't go on the video, but in a separate window on its propriety viewer, which shows a speedometer. It also had a window with a map. The speedometer and map window stopped displaying anything, and I stopped using the viewer a month or so later. I wasn't that concerned as I prefer VLC anyway and use started using Linux almost exclusively on my home computer. I never bothered to upgrade the firmware to see if it would fix the problem. 15 months or so after purchase
- Time loss#1. In parking mode, it seemed to lose about 5 minutes an hour. This becam an issue when I used my dash cam to record vandalism between my home and my neighbours. 15 months after purchase
- Time loss#2. After it stops running on the car battery, it sets the clock to January 2013. This was about 28 months after purchase
- Rear channel camera dying. Not getting a rear channel recorded any longer. Not sure if its the cable or the camera. Oddly when I disconnected the rear camera, problem #2 went away. Rear channel/cable issue happened 30 months after installing the rear camera.
