Ford recalls more than 200,000 vehicles over malfunctioning rearview camera
UNITED STATES, JUL 2 – Ford will notify owners of 200,061 vehicles affected by a rearview camera software glitch that may increase crash risk, with free updates starting late July, officials said.
- Ford Motor Co. announced a recall of 200,061 Ford and Lincoln vehicles due to a rearview camera software defect on July 2, 2025.
- The recall is due to a flaw in the SYNC 3 software that can result in the rearview camera either showing a blank screen or displaying the image even after the vehicle has stopped reversing, which could distract drivers.
- Models affected include Ford Bronco Sport , EcoSport , Mustang , and various Lincoln models from 2019 to 2023.
- Ford reported awareness of 1,326 warranty claims linked to this defect and three minor crashes, but no injuries have been confirmed so far.
- Owners will receive notification letters by July 28 and can have the camera software updated for free at Ford or Lincoln dealerships under recall number 25S72.
