Around View Monitor Cameras Not Lining Up

A forum for lovers of Infiniti's hot-rod crossover, the FX! In 2014, all FX models will be named Infiniti QX70, in line with Infiniti's new naming structure.

I recently traded my 2008 EX35 for a 2009 FX50. Both vehicles have the Around View Monitor system. On the EX35, the 4 images were seamlessly stitched together. Parking was very easy. However, the FX50's camera images do not line up properly. For instance, when backing into a parking space, the parallel lines on either side of the car look broken when looking at the front camera and the door-mounted cameras.

This makes it very difficult to park in tight spaces when relying on the cameras because the objects (or parts of parked vehicles) seem to disappear at some angles. Sidewalks also disappear until the other camera picks them up. Is there any way to adjust the image on all 4 cameras so that they properly align with each other? Otherwise, it's nearly pointless to have this system because I can't rely on it anymore. This was one of my favorite features of the car.

This only ever happened to me when the mirrors were folded in. Otherwise, my cameras line up perfectly.

Mine lined up perfectly on the EX 35, but they do not line up on the FX. I find this extremely irritating and I cannot count on them to park in tight corners. I will address this during my next service visit to see if there is anything that can be done. Thanks for posting.
