I accepted the permissions for the drive recorder some months back to enable it but have never used it so thought I would give it a go today for the very first time.

Didn't quite press the camera button long enough the first time to activate but once I did it stated it was recording from 20 seconds (I have 20 before/after on all 4 cameras) and it recorded the 20 seconds before as it should.

Not many replies, so difficult to know if it is specific to your vehicle or is likely to happen to any of us just at the time we need the important action that happened just before we pressed the button!

Maybe worth taking it in and hopefully they can re-create it. Having said that if they do re-create it then the only evidence will likely be a 20 second video instead of a 40 second video of which you should have several to show them already.

Also if your video starts at 20 seconds and runs for 20 seconds finishing at 40 seconds then they cannot say your setting was 10 before/after.

Perhaps a download of the videos would be enough to send the dealer in the first instance?
