Honda Drive Recorder

[MikeC]

I have a Honda Jazz Crosstar 71 plate. 

 

I wanted a Dashcam to give some extra protection to my car in case of any incidents that arose while out driving.  I was persuaded by the dealer to install the Honda Drive Recorder which I had done a couple of days ago. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to do anything useful and the instructions supplied with it are really hard to make sense of. When it was installed the sales person got it going and took a still picture of the front view and one of the back view using the reversing camera. That is all I have. The journey home wasn't recorded and I've been out a couple of times since but nothing is recorded. Does anyone have experience of this system because the Honda website doesn't provide anything I can find myself. 

Any suggestions gratefully received. At the moment I feel I've thrown away £400 to have it installed.

I have a Honda drive that was fitted to my new HRV.

But I wish I hadn't as the front quality is OK the image quality from the rear is really really poor.

I have wasted my money.

Could have a much better system from Halfords fir about a !/4 of the price.

Today it was looked at again at Honda and their reply was " It is what it is "
