Maps are not detailed when you zoom out.
Rear view camera not viewing right at first , it was backwards left to right , the instructions did not address this problem but I figured it out by mistake by just touching the corners of the screen when the camera view is on to get the right view.
Over all a good product for the money.

The Cons I entered, in order were:
1) Cannot update maps easily - I have beenn unable to connect to the Peak website AT ALL in the 5 months since I bought this thing.
2) Website cons limited to just a few characters.
3) Cannot tell if screen presses were recognized by the system.
4) The thing gives bad directions.
5) Backup camera field of view is extremely limited, to less than the width of my pickup truck.
6) Zoom in/out is unpredictable and slow.
7) 2D maps are skewed - I just want a regular 2d view, like I'm looking at a map.
This thing is junk. I just want 2-D maps and to be able to say "I want to get from where I am to ..." but when you ask for directions there's no option for "where I am" as a starting point. And what I really want is directions from "I71 Southbound to US50 Eastbound" but YOU HAVE TO HAVE ADDRESSES and then it takes you on sidestreets.
I was on my street and I could see my house. I asked for directions to my house. IT TOLD ME TO TURN AROUND, GET ON THE HIGHWAY, go 1 exit south, go north 2 miles, and then east 3.5 miles ....
Thank goodness I wasn't in a hurry to get to a hospital emergency room.
Much better to use my phone GPS application.

Comments about Peak 4.3" GPS Navigation System with Camera:
Thought it would be better than it is.... But it still functions ok! The directions it gives you are impractical... Sends you down seasonal roads!! Overall does work ok though

Comments about Peak 4.3" GPS Navigation System with Camera:
If you have a hatchback and your lights are part of the car don't buy. I had to take the complete hatch apart then fish the wires through the ports, then take the whole back of the car apart to fish the wires down. At least a 4 hour job and it was on a Sonic. Better know what you are doing, first before you take on the job.

Comments about Peak 4.3" GPS Navigation System with Camera:
Back up camera is good it is day and night camera and Navigation is so so.Hard to put address street address dosnt came by name but if you put zip code it recognize street and address. This camera is impossible to install on Honda Odyssey 2007 number plate with given bracket on center as trunk opening handle is there. Peak should mention this thing and should give some kind of mounting bracket that can be fit without any inconvenience of opening trunk.

Comments about Peak 4.3" GPS Navigation System with Camera:
Integrated GPS with rear camera great concept, but design flaw requiring manual on/off unlike competitors with auto on/off is unacceptable giant step back. Using standard large sized video connectors at both ends of video cord (cam and gps) makes it hard to route wires out of sight and thru small holes. Like many gps in price range, computes some ludicrous routes oblivious to way real people select routes, e.g., through residential neighborhoods and on busy roads with countless traffic lights despite preferable alternatives.
