Never used it in parking mode, etc. only when the vehicle was on. Worked flawlessly for five months. Stopped working on the 23rd, and noticed it on the evening of the 25th. Realized something was up because it kept rebooting and making the boot-up sound. When I took the memory card out, I saw that the videos stopped recording on the 23rd. REC light goes in and out, the other lights never turn on. I can't get WiFi to turn on. Can't connect to the camera.
Videos below are of the camera in the car, then I took it off and tried connecting it to an outlet via the supplied power cable. Photo is of my other unit working flawlessly with the same cable(s) and memory card(s) from the bad unit.

I've tried the following:
- Disconnected rear camera
- Swapped power cables, including the one that came with the camera
- All cables work with the good camera
- No cables work with the bad camera
- Swapped memory cards, bad camera remains non-functional, good camera is fine with either of my two Samsung 256gb EVOs or the 256gb Pro Endurance
- Also formatted the cards just in case
- I tried firmware upgrading the bad unit, unclear if it worked since I can't connect to the camera
- Pinhole reset, hazard + wifi button reset, don't think either worked. According to Viofo's site, all four lights are suppose to light up after a reset, that never happened and I tried multiple times with both methods
- Temperatures have been absolutely fine in SoCal (low 70s), the car is garaged
