Default C8 Front Camera(s) Realignment

Does anyone know if there is a GM procedure (software only) to realign the front camera on the C8?

I replaced the front fascia on my C8 for a Visible Carbon Fiber one and as expected the cameras are shall we say ..... off a bit.

I knew this going in as I have done quite a bit of VCF on the C8, and most of it requires re-work. Some more than others and this piece was no exception. The Camera mounts are quite tight so there is no manual adjustment (which is the same on the OEM Fascia).

I'm hoping there is a software fix for the cameras which now seem like they point a bit farther out from each other.

Thanks

I recall seeing that there is a procedure in the service manual to align the images in software. It probably requires a GM software tool to do it, though.

The image is "stitched" together via software so probably can be fixed with the software.

I am having the same issue after fascia replacement. How did this turn out. Were they able to recalibrate?

This is an excellent question to bring to your local dealer's attention, as they will have this information in greater detail. Should you need support connecting with one near you, feel free to email us at socialmedia@gm.com anytime.

Another meaningless post from "customer care." Seems like they have an AI reading the forum and responding to any thread that mentions "dealer."
