What is being recalled

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Transit vehicles previously repaired incorrectly under recall number 23V-598. The rearview camera, or 360-degree view camera if equipped, may not display a rearview image when the vehicle is placed in reverse.

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 rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 23, 2025. Ford's number for this recall is 25S38.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 25V-242 when calling a dealer.
