Rear camera not working properly, dashboard screen starts rapidly flickering when vehicle put in reverse. Unable to see if anything is behind vehicle.
I see they are recalling backup cameras on Ford Explorers mine has not worked properly for years. When backing up the camera shows objects on the left side of car on the right and vice versa. Example if im backing up and a car is coming from the passenger side of car in parking lot it shows it coming from the drivers side. It also stays on while driving and sometimes shows and black screen and distorted images. The date below is just this report date because I can't submit without.
The back up camera works only intermittently. It's fine sometimes and other times I just get a black screen. This has been going on for a year or more.
Backup camera doesn’t come on when in reverse. Works maybe 20% of the time. Other maybe 80%, the screen doesn’t do anything or says error.
Rear cross traffic alert stopped working . No warning signs. Out of warranty 2015 Ford Explorer. When backing up and someone walks behind vehicle audible alert does not work. Only 35,000 miles on vehicle, original owner. Dashboard screen still works. First time occurance. Screen menu shows alert is turned on.
Rear camera is faulty. Screen will “roll” like bad movie film. Sometimes it’s a black screen. Sometimes the screen doesn’t change at all and says to contact dealer.
When the car is in reverse the back up camera malfunctions. Sometimes the picture is distorted or appears backwards. For instance, the curb may be on the right side of my car, but appears on the left in the camera. More often, the camera does not work at all and no warning sounds occur for objects that may be behind the car. This issue is a safety recall in 2019 and 2020 models. I'm experiencing the same issues, but my year has not been recalled that I know of.
