Consumers in trucks drive demand for backup sensors
Some automakers have begun using rear-view cameras to better detect unseen children and pets. Nissan's Infiniti Q45 sedan has an optional camera that shows what's behind the car on the navigation system's screen. Honda has a similar camera system standard on its Acura MDX SUV and charges $900 for it on the Honda Pilot SUV.
Buyers are frustrated to learn there aren't enough systems to equip all models and that they have to pay as much as $1,000 when they can find the option.
"Interest starts to decline when the price exceeds $500," says Frank Forkin at consultant J.D. Power and Associates.
