Investing.com – Ford Motor Company recall approximately 1.74 million vehicles in the United States, involving two separate safety actions, both related to rearview camera malfunctions. Although both issues affect the driver’s visibility, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated that these recalls stem from different technical faults in the infotainment system hardware.

The first recall involves 849,310 model years 2021-2026 Ford Bronco and 2021-2024 Ford Edge, due to internal module overheating. This accessory protocol interface module (APIM) may experience “up to five minutes of temporary thermal shutdown” when temperatures reach 105°C.

The second, larger-scale recall affects 889,950 vehicles, including 2020-2022 Ford Escape and several Lincoln models, due to display inversion. This specific fault causes the SYNC infotainment system to “immediately display inverted or upside-down images after ignition cycles,” violating federal visibility standards.

The Michigan-based automaker confirmed that these safety risks will be addressed through software updates rather than physical hardware replacements. According to a statement released via email, the solution for the thermal shutdown issue “will be deployed through Ford wireless software updates (OTA) or by taking the vehicles to Ford or Lincoln dealerships.”

For the second issue involving screen inversion, the final software fix is currently under development. The company noted that “a rearview camera that cannot display correct images when in reverse gear reduces the driver’s rearward visibility, increasing the risk of collision.”

Ford stated that no accidents or injuries have been reported due to module overheating or camera image inversion. Owners of affected vehicles are expected to receive official notification letters by mail starting in late March and April.
