What owners wrote

The rear backup camera has failed 5 times, the last time after only 7 days. There is a recall out on this problem on other Ford Vehicles (i.e. F150, Expedition, etc.) but not my model year. This is an extreme safety issue as it makes the vehicle unsafe to backup. The blind spot with the Extended Length edition is probably about 20 plus feet using just the mirrors. I've repeatedly contacted Ford Customer Service and the Dealer, and it has yet to be resolved.

June 2017

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that while reversing, the rear-view camera displayed a blank screen. The message “Camera Unavailable” was displayed. The contact later received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V572000 (Back Over Prevention). The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the recall repair was completed. The contact was informed that the rear-view camera was inoperable after the recall repair was performed.
