Very strange, no I don’t have that issue at all. It works very well. A couple of other issues induced by me on the Smarty Cam HD (not turning it off prior to yanking the SD card; not ensuring the SD card was fully seated before shutting the door).
But it is working very well for me. Perhaps there’s something wrong with your unit. Get in touch with Aim, their support is fairly quick.
Have you plugged it into your 2013 to see if it works with that car?
