Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

  • Rear parking-aid sensors intermittently fail to activate or warn while backing up, in at least one case leading to a collision.
  • Pre-collision assist fails to detect other cars (though it can detect larger vehicles), with dealers reporting no problem found.
  • Forward collision warning, cruise control, lane keeping, and ABS lights illuminate together, sometimes with a loss of power steering assist, and recur even after dealer software reprogramming.
  • Collision warning alerts trigger sporadically with no actual threat present, prompting sudden braking.
  • Speed sign recognition misreads posted limits and automatically slows the vehicle well below the actual speed limit.

    Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2018-2022 Transit Connect, 2019-2020 MKZ, MKX, Edge, Continental, F-150, Nautilus, Fusion, 2019-2023 Ranger, Mustang, 2020-2021 EcoSport, Expedition, Navigator, 2020-2022 Escape, F-250 SD, Corsair, 2020-2023 Aviator, Transit, 2020-2024 Explorer, 2021-2024 Bronco Sport, and 2022-2024 Maverick vehicles. A software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank image, or the image may remain on the display after the backing event has ended.

    Risk: A rearview camera that displays a blank image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle. A rearview image that continues to be displayed after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse may distract the driver. Both of these situations can increase the risk of a crash.

    Remedy: Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72.
