“The rear camera is having a glitch/ dark mode and is unable to fully inspect for any safety concerns despite myself checking my surroundings. It poses a hazard because it can cause myself to damage the car when I’m trying to reverse the car to park and I can accidentally hit an animal, a structure, or a child who is on my blind spot since the camera is unable to be shown clearly. Although there were multiple attempts to restart the car, using a Microsoft rag and updated the car it has failed to be resolved.”
“The contact owns a 2024 Ford Edge. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V124000 (Back Over Prevention); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted, and a software update was performed but the issue persisted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact stated that the rearview camera intermittently displayed a blank image. The failure also affected the radio and the air conditioning system and the air conditioning was inoperable. The approximate failure mileage was 26,000.”
“Vehicle shudders especially under 40mph. Dealer advised that the torque converter is bad.”
