Ford Motor Co. is recalling nearly 1.1 million vehicles in the United States due to a software malfunction that may cause rearview cameras to freeze, delay, or fail to display images, increasing the risk of a crash.

The recall affects various models, including the 2021–2024 Bronco, F-150, and Edge; 2023–2024 Escape, Corsair, F-250 through F-600 series trucks; as well as the 2022–2024 Expedition, 2022–2025 Transit, 2021–2023 Mustang Mach-E, Lincoln Nautilus, 2024 Ranger and Mustang, and the 2022–2024 Lincoln Navigator. The issue stems from faulty software that controls the infotainment system and dashboard display.

According to a filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the software glitch can prevent the rearview camera image from appearing correctly when the vehicle is in reverse. Ford has linked the issue to one reported minor crash involving property damage.

NHTSA initially contacted Ford in January following more than 30 complaints about rearview camera problems in 2021–2023 F-150 models. By April, Ford engineers had replicated the failure and traced it to specific software variants.

Ford plans to resolve the problem with an over-the-air software update. Notification letters will be mailed to affected owners by June 16, with a follow-up letter to be sent once the repair is ready.

This latest action follows two recalls in April affecting about 289,000 vehicles for separate camera-related issues, for which Ford will replace the cameras. In November, Ford agreed to pay a $165 million civil penalty after a federal investigation concluded the company delayed prior recalls for defective rearview cameras.

NHTSA’s scrutiny of Ford’s recall practices began in August 2021, after the automaker initially recalled 620,000 vehicles in 2020. That recall was later expanded in 2022 and again in March 2025, adding roughly 24,000 more vehicles.
