I am writing to express my concern with how Ford is handling safety recall 25s89. I have had numerous incidents where the camera has failed when backing up and have photos to document these instances. I brought my 2017 Edge to the dealership today and was told that it did not need replacement. So, it's "safe" to have the camera display a blank screen some of the time? I would think that the rationale behind a backup camera is that it is safe 100% of the time or it should be replaced. If a part fails only some of the time, is it considered a safe part per the NHTSA? I would really appreciate hearing back from someone at NHTSA on this issue and perhaps there needs to be review with Ford on how this is being handled.
The backup camera doesn't come on when backing up. You can't see persons or objects behind you that could cause injury or death. Vision is obstructed by the build of the SUV in the rear of the vehicle.
