What 2017 Ford Edge owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I am writing to express my concern with how Ford is handling Safety Recall 25S89. I have had numerous incidents where the camera has failed when backing up and have photos to document these instances. I brought my 2017 Edge to the dealership today and was told that it did not need replacement. So, it's "safe" to have the camera display a blank screen some of the time? I would think that the rationale behind a backup camera is that it is safe 100% of the time or it should be replaced. If a part fails only some of the time, is it considered a safe part per the federal safety agency? I would really appreciate hearing back from someone at the federal safety agency on this issue and perhaps there needs to be review with Ford on how this is being handled.
