Ford Recalls Trucks And SUVs For Faulty Rear Cameras
Read the full story on The Auto Wire In the past while, Ford has dealt with an inordinate number of vehicle recalls, and yet another one has been issued for certain full-size trucks and SUVs. According to an announcement from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear camera on the big vehicles might suddenly not work or show a distorted image, potentially leading to a total 72,624 vehicles are affected by this safety recall. They include certain 2021 Expeditions; 2021 to 2022 Super Duty F-250, F-350, F-450, F-550, F-600; and 2020 to 2022 Lincoln Corsairs. All except for the Lincoln are full-size models with giant blindspots, including at the tailgate, so the risk of hitting another vehicle or reversing over a person or animal is high should the rear camera malfunction. Considering this is for full-size models where it's hard to see what's behind you without the camera, this isn't the sort of thing we would ignore or hope doesn't affect you one day. Unfortunately, you can't get it fixed, at least not quite yet. NHTSA says a repair for the issue hasn't been formulated quite yet. But owners will start receiving notices in the mail that their vehicle needs recall work performed starting next week. In the meantime, if your camera stops working, you'll need to be extra cautious when reversing. We don't know if you'd be able to tell the image produced by the camera is distorted, but if you suspect that's the case, you'll need to be more careful. We suppose if you have another vehicle to drive you can use that instead, but it sounds like a timeline for repairing the problem isn't available yet. If you're unsure your truck or SUV is part of this recall, you can contact Ford customer service at 866-436-7332 and reference recall number 25S05. Alternatively, you can contact NHTSA at 888-327-4236 or go to and enter your VIN to check for any recalls on your vehicle.
