The backup camera failed. Vehicle had a 1 year customer satisfaction program and Ford would not repair this because it failed outside the 1 year window. Now, they came out with a 15 year one time fix, but Ford does not have a remedy. This is a safety issue and should be a recall (just like it is on our 2 Ford Mavericks)! The camera was also hanging up and not allowing the sync system to shut off which was consistently draining our battery. Had our sync system updated at local mechanics shop and camera/sync started working again for a couple of weeks and its back to blue or black screen saying “camera unavailable contact dealership.” My dealership said no remedy available until Feb 2027. The vehicle also states “check your surroundings” but you can’t because it doesn’t work. This at a minimum should be a recall as it is a safety issue and it is on other Ford vehicles.

Backup camera failure by model year
What owners say
Backup camera goes blurry and very distorted
The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-250. The contact’s spouse stated that while attempting to reverse, the back-over prevention system became inoperable. The spouse reported that the rearview camera image was blank, and none of the rear sensors provided any notification or warning, resulting in the vehicle reversing into a tree. The contact received notifications of the federal safety agency Campaign Number 25V455000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) and 25V686000 (Back Over Prevention); however, the parts to complete the recall repairs were not yet available. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time to complete the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 49,700.
Rear view camera does not always display, either black screen with distorted view lines or complete blue screen. Vehicle is not on current camera recall list
My reverse camera (the bed camera) quits working at random times. Sometimes it works fine. Other times it shows nothing but a white static looking screen and sometimes the button just doesn’t respond at all when I try to select the bed camera option.
