No. 20V-575), recalling 620,246 Model Year (MY) 2020 Ford F-150, F-250, F-350, F-450, F-550, Explorer, Mustang, Transit, Expedition, Escape, Ranger and Edge, and Lincoln Nautilus and Corsair vehicles for a noncompliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 111, Rear Visibility. Ford's recall described the noncompliance as insufficient electrical conductivity within the printed circuit board (PCB) internal to the camera leading to intermittent rearview camera operation. The supplier of the cameras was Magna Electronics.According to Ford's chronology in the Part 573, during the period February-April 2020, Ford identified and monitored warranty claims pertaining to intermittent or inoperative rearview cameras. Ford reviewed supplier product changes, focusing on changes introduced by the supplier in the October-November 2019 time frame. The Part 573 stated that the issue was brought to Ford's Critical Concerns Review Group (CCRG) for review on May 12, 2020.On July 7, 2020, NHTSA's Vehicle Research and Testing Center (VRTC) informed the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) of a trend of MY 2020 Escape vehicles with rearview camera malfunctions. ODI contacted Ford the next day, providing five Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQs) alleging inoperative rearview cameras. On July 15, 2020, Ford met with NHTSA to discuss the rearview camera issue. In a subsequent August 24, 2020 meeting, ODI and NHTSA's Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance (OVSC) met with Ford to discuss the recall status and additional VOQs. Ford presented rate and scope data for many of its MY 2020 products during the August 2020 meeting indicating high failure rates for certain models.This RQ is being opened to investigate both the timeliness and scope of Ford's rearview camera recall (20V-575), and Ford's compliance with reporting requirements.The subject reports referenced i", "years": [2020], "open": true}], "segment_rank": 2, "segment_n": 2, "peers": [{"make": "Dodge", "model": "Charger", "avg_per_year": 10.5, "idx_vs_all": 0.25, "top_group": "airbags", "complaints": 431, "recalls": 18, "trend": "improving", "recent_trend": "steady", "rank": 1, "self": false}, {"make": "Ford", "model": "Mustang", "avg_per_year": 14.8, "idx_vs_all": 0.35, "top_group": "engine", "complaints": 658, "recalls": 37, "trend": "worsening", "recent_trend": "steady", "rank": 2, "self": true}], "changed": "2026-09-04"}, "model_years": [{"first_filed": "2018-01-25", "last_filed": "2026-08-17", "median_filing_delay_days": 14, "limited_data": false, "complaints": 187, "crashes": 8, "fires": 1, "injuries": 5, "deaths": 0, "severe": 8, "severe_share": 4.3, "injuries_per_100": 2.7, "per_year": 21.6, "age_years": 8.7, "by_group": [{"group": "engine", "count": 60, "share": 32.1, "ratio": 1.45}, {"group": "transmission", "count": 40, "share": 21.4, "ratio": 1.84}, {"group": "electrical", "count": 33, "share": 17.6, "ratio": 1.12}, {"group": "structure", "count": 22, "share": 11.8, "ratio": 1.29}, {"group": "hvac", "count": 13, "share": 7.0, "ratio": 0.78}, {"group": "brakes", "count": 4, "share": 2.1, "ratio": 0.35}, {"group": "steering", "count": 4, "share": 2.1, "ratio": 0.32}, {"group": "airbags", "count": 4, "share": 2.1, "ratio": 0.55}, {"group": "fuel", "count": 2, "share": 1.1, "ratio": 0.26}, {"group": "adas", "count": 2, "share": 1.1, "ratio": 0.19}, {"group": "wheels", "count": 2, "share": 1.1, "ratio": 0.44}, {"group": "other", "count": 1, "share": 0.5, "ratio": 0.28}], "top_group": "engine", "by_filed_year": [{"year": 2018, "count": 10}, {"year": 2019, "count": 20}, {"year": 2020, "count": 24}, {"year": 2021, "count": 16}, {"year": 2022, "count": 17}, {"year": 2023, "count": 21}, {"year": 2024, "count": 19}, {"year": 2025, "count": 42}, {"year": 2026, "count": 18}], "early": 30, "early_closed": true, "age_buckets": [{"key": "age_0_1", "count": 16, "share": 8.6}, {"key": "age_1_2", "count": 19, "share": 10.2}, {"key": "age_2_3", "count": 27, "share": 14.4}, {"key": "age_3_5", "count": 34, "share": 18.2}, {"key": "age_5p", "count": 91, "share": 48.7}], "median_age_months": 57, "recent_12m": 32, "prior_12m": 33, "recent_trend": "steady", "recalls": 4, "recall_list": [{"campaign": "25V572000", "make": "Ford", "model": "Mustang", "year": 2018, "received": "2025-09-04", "component": "BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA", "summary": "Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2015-2019 Lincoln MKC, Mustang, F-350 SD, F-250 SD, F-450 SD, 2015-2017 Lincoln Navigator, Expedition, 2015-2018 Edge, Transit Connect, 2016-2019 F-550 SD, Transit, 2017-2019 Econoline, and 2019 Ranger vehicles.

Ford's recall described the noncompliance as insufficient electrical conductivity within the printed circuit board (PCB) internal to the camera leading to intermittent rearview camera operation. The supplier of the cameras was Magna Electronics.According to Ford's chronology in the Part 573, during the period February-April 2020, Ford identified and monitored warranty claims pertaining to intermittent or inoperative rearview cameras. Ford reviewed supplier product changes, focusing on changes introduced by the supplier in the October-November 2019 time frame. The Part 573 stated that the issue was brought to Ford's Critical Concerns Review Group (CCRG) for review on May 12, 2020.On July 7, 2020, NHTSA's Vehicle Research and Testing Center (VRTC) informed the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) of a trend of MY 2020 Escape vehicles with rearview camera malfunctions. ODI contacted Ford the next day, providing five Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQs) alleging inoperative rearview cameras. On July 15, 2020, Ford met with NHTSA to discuss the rearview camera issue. In a subsequent August 24, 2020 meeting, ODI and NHTSA's Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance (OVSC) met with Ford to discuss the recall status and additional VOQs. Ford presented rate and scope data for many of its MY 2020 products during the August 2020 meeting indicating high failure rates for certain models.This RQ is being opened to investigate both the timeliness and scope of Ford's rearview camera recall (20V-575), and Ford's compliance with reporting requirements.The subject reports referenced i", "years": [2020], "open": true}], "keywords": {"electrical": [{"term": "camera", "docs": 11, "ratio": 10.0}, {"term": "prevention", "docs": 6, "ratio": 41.6}, {"term": "screen", "docs": 9, "ratio": 7.6}, {"term": "blue", "docs": 4, "ratio": 24.7}, {"term": "distorted", "docs": 3, "ratio": 49.6}, {"term": "blank", "docs": 4, "ratio": 17.3}], "engine": [{"term": "coolant", "docs": 12, "ratio": 14.6}, {"term": "engine", "docs": 22, "ratio": 4.0}, {"term": "cylinders", "docs": 7, "ratio": 45.3}, {"term": "intrusion", "docs": 7, "ratio": 29.5}, {"term": "gasket", "docs": 7, "ratio": 25.5}, {"term": "ecoboost", "docs": 5, "ratio": 65.3}], "transmission": [{"term": "transmission", "docs": 14, "ratio": 9.7}, {"term": "shifting", "docs": 6, "ratio": 14.6}, {"term": "clutch", "docs": 4, "ratio": 45.5}, {"term": "documented", "docs": 4, "ratio": 18.6}, {"term": "gear", "docs": 5, "ratio": 6.8}, {"term": "automatic", "docs": 4, "ratio": 8.7}]}, "changed": "2026-09-04"}, {"first_filed": "2021-11-26", "last_filed": "2026-06-22", "median_filing_delay_days": 39, "limited_data": false, "complaints": 55, "crashes": 4, "fires": 0, "injuries": 2, "deaths": 0, "severe": 4, "severe_share": 7.3, "injuries_per_100": 3.6, "per_year": 9.7, "age_years": 5.7, "by_group": [{"group": "fuel", "count": 11, "share": 20.0, "ratio": 4.64}, {"group": "engine", "count": 10, "share": 18.2, "ratio": 0.82}, {"group": "electrical", "count": 9, "share": 16.4, "ratio": 1.04}, {"group": "transmission", "count": 7, "share": 12.7, "ratio": 1.09}, {"group": "brakes", "count": 4, "share": 7.3, "ratio": 1.2}, {"group": "airbags", "count": 3, "share": 5.5, "ratio": 1.44}, {"group": "structure", "count": 3, "share": 5.5, "ratio": 0.6}, {"group": "wheels", "count": 3, "share": 5.5, "ratio": 2.21}, {"group": "hvac", "count": 3, "share": 5.5, "ratio": 0.61}, {"group": "steering", "count": 1, "share": 1.8, "ratio": 0.28}, {"group": "adas", "count": 1, "share": 1.8, "ratio": 0.31}], "top_group": "fuel", "by_filed_year": [{"year": 2021, "count": 1}, {"year": 2022, "count": 9}, {"year": 2023, "count": 10}, {"year": 2024, "count": 6}, {"year": 2025, "count": 19}, {"year": 2026, "count": 10}], "early": 10, "early_closed": true, "age_buckets": [{"key": "age_0_1", "count": 5, "share": 9.1}, {"key": "age_1_2", "count": 9, "share": 16.4}, {"key": "age_2_3", "count": 9, "share": 16.4}, {"key": "age_3_5", "count": 25, "share": 45.5}, {"key": "age_5p", "count": 7, "share": 12.7}], "median_age_months": 42, "recent_12m": 16, "prior_12m": 15, "recent_trend": "steady", "recalls": 6, "recall_list": [{"campaign": "25V689000", "make": "Ford", "model": "Mustang", "year": 2021, "received": "2025-10-10", "component": "ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:BODY CONTROL MODULE/BCM", "summary": "Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Mustang vehicles repaired incorrectly under recall number 23V727.
