Ford has issued a recall in the United States after detecting a defect in the rearview camera of several of its models. The warning, filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), affects more than 200,000 vehicles from the Ford and Lincoln brands. Among the listed models are popular trucks and SUVs such as the Ford F-150, Bronco, Mustang, Explorer, EcoSport, etc., as well as Lincoln vehicles like the Continental, Navigator, Corsair, and Aviator. According to the report submitted to the NHTSA, the system defect can increase the risk of accidents, which has prompted this massive recall.
This is not the first time a big vehicle manufacturing brand has issued a recall
, so let’s find out what’s happening with this one.
Ford recalls more than 200,000 vehicles
The automobile company Ford Motor Company has announced an official recall of more than 200,000 vehicles in the United States due to an issue with the software affecting the functioning of the rearview camera. This camera, installed in the rear part of the vehicles, helps the driver see what is behind the car when reversing. However, due to this failure, the camera may show two different errors that represent a road safety risk.
According to the recall notice published and shared with U.S. road safety authorities, the defect may cause the image not to appear, for example the screen is completely blank, or for the camera image to remain on the screen even after the driver has finished backing up. In both cases, the malfunction may distract the driver or prevent them from having proper visibility, which increases the risk of an accident.
Which vehicles are affected?
In total, 200,061 vehicles are included in this recall, including various Ford and Lincoln models. Amongthe Ford models affected are:
- Bronco Sport

- Edge

So far, Ford has not received any reports of accidents or injuries related to the defect. There are also no lawsuits connected to this recall at the moment, though similar cases have sometimes led to class action lawsuits when consumers report negligence or harm.
