What this recall means for you
A rearview camera on certain Transit vans may fail to display an image when the vehicle is in reverse. This happens when the camera is installed by a final stage manufacturer, and it is a repair that was previously done incorrectly under an earlier recall.
Without a rearview image, the driver has less view of what is behind the vehicle while backing up, which can increase the risk of a crash. If you own an affected vehicle, Ford will update the audio control module software at no cost. Owner notification letters were mailed February 5, 2026, and you can contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 (Ford recall number 25S68).
To check whether your vehicle is included, look up your VIN on NHTSA.gov once it becomes searchable, and check for any open recalls. Authorized dealers will perform the repair free of charge.
