Anyone having issues with their rear parking camera?

Just picked up a new (3-month old ex dealer owned) 2025 A5 and when taking it out couldn’t get the rear camera to work.

Just doesn’t show anything on the display. As in not even a blank screen, only the image of the car for the parking sensors pop up but the camera does not even attempt to display?

Sales rep asked the service guys who said it’s apparently a known issue affecting all new Audis and an imminent recall / SW bulletin coming in 2 months or so.

Took the car as everything else is fine and I can find some info verifying the dealers claims online with regards to mass American recalls, but was wondering if anyone on here has experienced the same?

I know the camera has worked at some point as the photos of the car ad show it was working, but now when you put it into reverse it just pops up the display for the sensors and acts like the rear camera is non-existent even though it’s on the boot lid.
 
Seem to have sorted it for now at least. Pulled the fuse, checked it was good, confirmed with a multi meter and re-fitted then it began to work after that!

Guessing that pulling the fuse has allowed the camera module software to reset and come back to life.

Let’s see if it lasts…I did also email Audi to ask if they can confirm what the dealer told me about a long term fix being in the works.
