Rearview System Braking problems of the 2019 Ford Edge

The transmission/torque converter completely failed after being maintained while driving on the highway without any warning. The transmission began jerking and bucking, almost sending me into the oncoming lane while driving. Coupled with the lane departure avoidance system automatically turning my wheel, the vehicle became uncontrollable. Even though I removed my foot from the gas an tried braking, the transmission would not disengage for a few seconds causing me to almost lose control of the vehicle. Then the transmission just gave out and I was unable to pull off some where safe without issue. There were no warnings on the vehicle, no lights, nothing signaled an issue until after I was able to get the car to stop at the side of the road. The vehicle had to be towed due to not being able to drive at all. It has been inspected and I have been told the transmission just completely went out, possibly due to a leak in the linkage I was not aware of, and was not caught during my last inspection/ fluid change. Multiple items failed on the vehicle including the recently recalled back up camera/sensor issue that I was never advised about by the manufacturer.

This incident is related to the rear view camera and the sync/radio interface in my vehicle. The recent recall for Ford explorers in relation to the rear cameras are also present in the Ford Edge. In addition to these issues, when I am driving my rear view camera will turn on while driving. This has occurred on the freeway and has impacted how my car reacts to collision assists, lane keeping/departure functions. I have taken my car to Ford and they have neglected the issue and said there is nothing they can do. I have left voicemails to get my car looked at again and reported to Ford but seeing the recall headlines today about Ford suvs I wanted to report that this is also happening yo Ford Edges and has caused issues for me. I believe this to be a glitch in the sync software. This has been an ongoing issue but has most recently occurred to me yesterday. I have video of this behavior as well but included a photo - you can see the car is in drive and the rear view camera is active.

Vehicle backup camera having blurred image, no image, and camera not available. Similar issue as the recall on 2o20 Ford Edge recall NHTSA campaign number: 22v151 and Ford’s recall 22s14.
