2019 Ford Flex

My backup camera is not working all the time, sometimes it comes on but more than not it doesn’t work, I contacted a Dealer and they said there is no solution for this issue.

Getting on Interstate 35 at Bevington, Iowa and heard a noise at drivers side window and a piece of trim broke in 2 pieces, scared me and I pulled over on the Interstate to look and there was a piece hanging from some wires on drivers door

My 2019 Ford Flex is experiencing a complete factory rearview backup camera failure. When I place the vehicle into reverse, the center display screen regularly goes completely blank/black or blue or severe image distortion or black with warning "camera is unavailable". This is now happening almost every time I drive the vehicle and started about eight months ago but is now getting more frequent. This failure eliminates my rearward line of sight, creating an immediate back-over crash risk and a severe pedestrian safety hazard. This vehicle is part of the model pool affected by the Ford Safety Recall 24S75 (NHTSA Campaign 24V951000) and the expanded 25SB8 camera recall. I am filing this to document the active failure of this safety component on my specific VIN [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
