I've noticed that the guide lines on the backup camera don't match the actual distances/are not accurate.

When I back in to a parking spot, I'll use my mirrors and see that there is about 6 inches of space between my vehicle and the parking line, but if I look at the guide line in the backup camera, it seems as if I am much closer to the line, about an inch or so. I go off of the mirror view and if I go outside it is much closer to 6 inches than 1 inch, which is what the backup camera displayed.

Can these guide lines be adjusted or do I just deal with it being off?

I would imagine it is a built in imagine of error for safety.
Possibly, but my 2020 didn't do that and if I do go off of the backup camera and not my mirrors then I would be too far to the right side parking line.

I'm not trying to avoid using my mirrors, I use both (mainly mirrors) and when the backup cam is 'off' I always look back at my mirror to make sure I didn't go off course, if that make sense.
