Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling approximately 200,237 vehicles across several 2018-2024 model lines, including the F-150, Explorer, and various Lincoln models. A software error can cause the rearview camera to display a blank image while backing up or cause the camera image to remain on the screen after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse. Dealers will provide a free software update to resolve this issue and restore proper camera function.

Risk

A blank rearview camera screen prevents the driver from seeing obstacles behind the vehicle, while a lingering image on the display can distract the driver. Both conditions significantly increase the risk of a crash during or after backing maneuvers.
