What this recall means for you
The 360-degree camera system in certain Ford Explorers and Lincoln Aviators and Corsairs may fail, so the rearview camera image may not display. Losing the rear camera image reduces what the driver can see behind the vehicle, which increases the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the 360-degree camera at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed November 10, 2023. You can also contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and reference Ford recall number 23S23. This recall expands and replaces NHTSA recall 23V-022, so if your vehicle was previously repaired under that recall, it will still need the new remedy.
Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls and schedule a free repair at an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
