What this recall means for you
Certain 2019 Ford F-150 and Super Duty F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 trucks may have a poor electrical connection in the rearview camera. As a result, the camera can intermittently display a blank or distorted image. These vehicles also do not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 111, which covers rear visibility.
A rearview camera that goes blank or distorted reduces what the driver can see behind the vehicle, which raises the risk of a crash while backing up.
