Known issues and safety

Recall check: we searched GOV.UK product safety alerts, reports and recalls (Office for Product Safety and Standards) for “rac” on 19 October 2026 and found no results [2]. Check the list again for the exact model before you buy.

We did not review a manual, so we cannot summarise the maker’s safety instructions. Fit the unit so that it does not block your view, and follow the instructions supplied.

Questions people ask

Does it record all the time?

Does it have a rear camera?

The listing does not mention one [1].

How big a card can I use?

Up to 64 GB; an 8 GB card is supplied [1].
