2015 Ford Taurus electrical system problems

“The contact owns a 2015 Ford Taurus. The contact stated while reversing, the rear view camera displayed a blank screen. The failure was persistent. In addition, the fuel gauge displayed incorrect fuel levels. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V695000 (Back Over Prevention); however the part to complete the recall repair was unavailable. The manufacturer was contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 226,000.”

“The fuel gauge in my 2015 Taurus/Interceptor is showing inaccurate fuel levels; it will show there is less fuel in the tank than there actually is, causing me to think I am possibly going to run out of fuel. Example: I will fill the fuel tank when the gauge reads 3/4, which should be around 5 gallons of fuel used. The amount of fuel being put in the tank is significantly less than what the fuel gauge shows.”

“The contact owns a 2015 Ford Taurus. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact heard an abnormally loud sound. The contact stated that the sound came from the passenger's side of the vehicle. The contact stated that the sound sounded like a gunshot. In addition, the radio independently turned off and on. No warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the failure had occurred twice. The contact had AFIB and stated that the sound was loud enough and could have caused the contact to have a heart attack. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The vehicle was scheduled for an upcoming diagnostic test in January 2026. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 140,000.”

“When putting my car in Reverse the back-up camera does not work properly. It either shows up and jumps screens to where you can't see anything behind you or make out what you're looking at. or the screen just goes black. It has not been looked at by anyone. There are no Warning lamps, signals or any other warning. The camera has been going in and out not working for over 6 months. I am worried that when backing up I might hit something or not see everything in view.”

“The Rear View Camera has not been working properly for 5-6 years. Sometimes it works to display what is behind he car and at other times there is a blank black screen displaying a message that it's not working. The vehicle is out of warranty, and my local auto mechanic informed me that the cost to investigate and repair it would be very expensive, and recommended against fixing it. It does pose a safety problem, but we have become diligent in looking carefully in the rear view mirror and directly by turning around to ensure that there is nothing behind the car. Also, the warning "beeps" still works when in reverse. I noted that Ford has had many previous recalls regarding the back-up cameras, and wonder how my car has not been included. Please check if there are any recalls that my vehicle would qualify for. Thank you.”

“Rear backup camera works intermittently, when failing says contact dealer. Makes it unreliable and eventually may lead to an accident due to unexpected visibility issues when backing up.”
