Back Over Prevention · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: The rearview camera may incorrectly display an inverted image when the vehicle is in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "rear visibility."
Why it matters: An inverted rearview camera image will not accurately display what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the rearview camera as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 28, 2025.
