TL;DR: Both of my Garmin Mini 2 dashcams have failed—one wouldn’t turn on and the replacement won’t connect to the app. Plus, my other dashcam has is missing footage even though it was recording.

I have 2 Garmin mini 2s. They both suck. First one started to intermittently not turn on, called Garmin and they replaced it under warranty… the new (refurbished) one they sent me to replace it with refused to connect to their app so I have to call again and get them to send another replacement.

Tonight, I went to pull the footage off my other dashcam as I wanted to look at this stupid move another driver made yesterday and there’s nothing there. I loaded it up on my computer and everything prior to yesterday and today is there but the file that’s there for yesterday is just a 0KB file that shows the correct time I would have started my drive yesterday but there’s no further recordings from the drive. Yet the dashcam indicated it was recording the entire time I was driving. Imagine if I had gotten into an accident, i’d be SOL.

Garmin sucks
