Ford Motor Company: Explorer Police Interceptor Utility Recalled for Backup Camera Display Failure

Agency Publication Date: April 28, 2023

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Ford is recalling approximately 523 Explorer Police Interceptor Utility vehicles from the 2020-2022 model years that are equipped with a 12.1-inch Integrated Computer Screen (ICS). In these vehicles, if a driver uses the 'Display On/Off' button to turn the screen off before shifting into reverse, the backup camera image will fail to appear. Dealers will provide a free software update to the computer screen system to ensure the rearview image displays correctly. Owners were previously notified by mail starting July 27, 2023.

Risk

A backup camera that fails to display an image significantly reduces the driver’s visibility of the area behind the vehicle. This failure increases the danger of backing into people or objects, which poses a serious risk of a crash or injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your vehicle records to determine if you own a 2020-2022 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor Utility vehicle equipped with the 12.1-inch Integrated Computer Screen (ICS).
  2. Contact a Ford dealership to schedule an appointment for a free update to the Integrated Computer Screen (ICS) software.
  3. If you have additional questions, contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and reference Ford recall number 23C14.
  4. Call the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov for more information.
