Ford and its Lincoln luxury brand have issued a recall for about 277,000 vehicles that may have faulty backup cameras. The recall affects 2017-2020 Ford Super Duty trucks and Lincoln Continental sedans.
In documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Ford explains that an anti-UV coating on a camera lens “can lead to a progressively foggy or cloudy rearview camera image.”
Dealers will fix the problem by replacing the entire rearview camera. Recall repairs are always free.
Many cars are recalled to fix safety defects, sometimes more than once. While automakers try to reach every owner to ask them to bring the vehicle in for repair, they rarely reach them all. Millions of vehicles on American roads need free recall repairs. Check the easy VIN tool at our recall center to find out if your car is one of them.
