Backup camera works intermittently. Only works ~20% of the time

Filed Jul 3, 2025 · Seat belts · OK

My husband (age [XXX] ) and I (age [XXX] ) were traveling on, he was driving, [XXX] in Atoka, OK on the evening of [XXX], when all of a sudden we heard a loud pop. It sounded like a gun shot. The sound was followed by a smoke smell. He held his composure and was able to pull over, and we learned that it was the seatbelt that was affected, and he had cinch marks on his shirt left by the seatbelt. We then realized the driver’s side seatbelt was “floppy” and wouldn’t retract back. I then called our local Ford dealership in Durant, OK to get it in asap and was informed to bring it in Monday, June 23, 2025. We drove the car home to Durant, OK which is approximately 30 minutes away on a very dangerous stretch of highway after the call. On Monday, I carefully drove it to the dealership to be repaired. I was informed later that day that they were able to repair one recall, the back up camera, but the seatbelt couldn’t be repaired due to a back order on the part (told by Kyle the service tech). I emailed Red River Ford service manager immediately after that and was sent an email back that had his phone number. I then called him, Rick Riley, and he told me that he’s showing that the part is actually not even available to get and couldn’t give me an estimated time. I asked if it was possible to get a loaner, this is my personal car and the only car that can hold my family of 6. We were leaving for vacation June 25 and had no way to get to the airport. I called Lincoln concierge to see if they could do anything to get me a loaner, and the representative was no help. She told me she was going to contact Red River Ford but never did; I had sent a message asking Rick Riley if he had been contacted, and he said no. We ended up paying for a driver to safely get us to DFW airport which cost $360. I’ve called Lincoln 2 more times now and keep getting told the part is on back order but no advice on getting a loaner or them buying back the car. I don’t know what else to do.

After the recall on the backup camera the image processing unit (IPMB) has gone bad and the car does not display any camera information views (back up, front, 360 degree). I believe this is also related to the back up camera recall and should be addressed.

Back up camera does not work all the time most of the time, camera does not come on when in reverse or when camera button is pressed.
