Ford Motor announced on Friday, Jan. 27, that it had issued a recall on some of its sports utility vehicle models. This affects a total of 462,000 units worldwide, and cited issues with the rear camera as the reason.
As per Reuters, Ford Motor Company’s latest recall involves its Explorer with model years 2020-2023, Lincoln Aviator, and Lincoln Corsair SUV with 2020-2023 model years. These are said to have been fitted with 360-degree rearview cameras, which may fail to work, preventing any image from displaying on the monitor.
The American automaker said that 382,000 units are being recalled in the United States, and the rest are from other parts of the world. So far, the company has received 17 reports of minor crashes related to the issue. There were no reports of injuries but more than 2,100 already claimed warranties.
Moreover, this latest recall is said to be an expansion of the one issued in 2021, which covered 228,000 vehicles. This comes after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) contacted Ford Motor in 2021 and 2022 after receiving complaints about a blue image in the rear camera display after the recall in 2021 was completed.
The call from the NHTSA prompted Ford to investigate the issue. The company said that authorized dealers would simply update the image processing module software of the vehicles, and units that were previously recalled would have to get a new update as well.
In any case, the carmaker explained that the video output from the 360-degree rearview cameras on the affected SUVs may fail to work, and thus image may not show. This reduces rear visibility and increases the risk of a crash.
Finally, WGNTV reported that owners of the affected Ford Motor SUVs are set to receive notifications regarding the recall. Mailed letters will be sent out starting Feb. 20.
