Ford Motor Company is recalling more than 1 million vehicles across multiple models due to a software glitch that could cause the rearview camera to malfunction, increasing the risk of an accident.
According to a notice filed with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the camera image may freeze, delay, or fail to display when the vehicle is shifted into reverse. The defect poses a serious safety risk, especially when drivers rely on the rearview feed to maneuver.
Ford says the issue will be resolved either at dealerships or through an over-the-air (OTA) software update. A preliminary safety notification will be sent to affected vehicle owners starting June 16. A follow-up letter with details on the update is expected in the third quarter of 2025.
The recall affects 1,075,299 vehicles from a wide range of models, including:
2021–2024 Bronco
2021–2024 Edge
2023–2024 Escape
2021–2024 F-150
2023–2024 F-Series Super Duty (F-250 to F-600)
2022–2024 Expedition
2022–2025 Transit
2021–2023 Mustang Mach-E
2024 Ranger
2024 Mustang
2021–2023 Lincoln Nautilus
2022–2024 Navigator
2023–2024 Lincoln Corsair
Ford encourages customers to contact its customer service line at 1-866-436-7332 for further assistance. NHTSA can also be reached via its Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY: 888-275-9171) or online at nhtsa.gov.
The recall has been assigned the reference number 25S49 by Ford.
