Cant complete the product registration process. The response is that the 15 digit bar code is not valid.

Preferred solution: I would like the unit to work and to be able to complete the registration process without the system telling me the numbers are not valid.

User's recommendation: Don’t buy it

Faulty product

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I purchased a Thinkware front rear dash cam in May 2021, the unit failed 6 weeks after purchase, I contacted the company and after having me jump through hoops agreed for me to return the unit for a replacement, once the new unit was received it worked good for about 2 months before it to quit working, (would not power up). I once again contacted the company and the hoop jumping started again I emailed receipts followed directions for updating the firmware etc...

the unit still failed to work, sent the unit back and Thinkware sent me a replacement, this time the unit did not work out of the box, same scenario they had me performing diagnostics as to why it would not power on would not admit I got somebody else's return.

Not only that, but I am out 200 dollars for a piece of garbage! I will not ever purchase a Thinkware product again nor will I ever recommend, I ended up spending more money to replace the unit with a Rexing and have been completely satisfied

I wish I knew about the lack of customer service before purchasing their poorly made U1000.
