What is being recalled
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, and 2020-2022 Lincoln Corsair vehicles equipped with a 360-degree camera. The video output may fail, preventing the rearview camera image from displaying.
Why it is dangerous
Loss of the rearview camera image can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Dealers will update the image processing module (IPMB) software, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters informing owners of the safety risk were mailed April 25, 2023. Owner notification letters were mailed February 13, 2023. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 23S02. This recall expands and replaces NHTSA recall number 21V-735. Vehicles previously repaired under 21V-735 will need to have the new remedy performed.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 23V-022 when calling a dealer.
