Ford has decided to recall more than 1 million vehicles in the US. The decision was made due to a software-related image error in the rearview camera, which causes the driver to be unable to see the rear of the vehicle clearly.
Ford has recalled more than 1 million vehicles
The company’s notification to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated that the image freezing, being delayed or appearing completely black could increase the risk of a crash. This recall covers a large number of models manufactured between 2021 and 2024.
The affected vehicles include the Ford Bronco, Edge, F-150, 2023-2024 Escape, 2022-2024 Expedition, 2024 Mustang, 2021-2023 Mustang Mach-E, 2022-2024 Lincoln Navigator and 2021-2023 Lincoln Nautilus.
Ford received the first user reports of a backup camera issue in January. The company said it was only aware of a “minor crash” that occurred as a result of the issue.
The recall will include a software update for the vehicles. Ford said owners can update the updates remotely (OTA) or through authorized dealers. The company faced a similar backup camera issue in 2020 and was fined $165 million by the NHTSA for being slow to fix the issue.
The company also issued two separate recalls in April for 289,000 Bronco, F-Series, and Expedition models, also related to the backup camera. What do you think about this? You can share your thoughts with us in the comments section below.
