Blind Spot Detection problems of the 2021 Ford Explorer

2021 Ford Explorer •problem: blind spot detection / sensor malfunction •description to copleft-side blind spot sensor fails intermittently. It shows no warning when vehicles are in the blind spot, creating a risk during lane changes. I found Ford TSB 23-2048 confirms the issue. Dealer quoted $1,200 but this is a known factory problem and safety issue.

Every 6 months, the rear cameras, cross traffic sensors and blind spot warning go out and completely stop functioning. I take it to the dealer tland they keep it for 1-2 weeks and eventually replace a fuse and send it home. This has happened four times. No one will actually correct the root cause ti the issue. It's going on its third week in the shop this time.

The back up camera fails basically 1 out of 5 times it's engaged between skipping or just straight blue/black screen. The screen is out and causes blind spots while backing up.

I do realize there is a recall for back-up camera; which I've had issues with since early part of 2022 (we bought vehicle in April 2021). March of 2022 we had our SUV to dealership about screen turning blue; which they supposedly did some deprogramming. Then, in July of 2022 had it back to dealership because the blue screen became worse; in which they said they replaced the whole system ( I have receipts/documents to prove this). Well, now when in reverse we have blue screen or black. Occasionally when in drive while driving or sitting idling the screen either is blue, black or completely freezes to where none of options such as navigation, hands-free calling, or anything can be done/used. I have video footages, I have pictures and the matter is only getting worse! I have called Ford corporation, I have taken the SUV recently to local dealership and just keep being told that all that is connected to back-up camera; that there is nothing they can do!! the Ford Explorer has had many electrical issues ranging from 3rd row seat (have receipt/documentation of this), to at times air/heat not wanting to work. Plus, it has had oil leak coming from front cv axle (have receipt/documentation of this). Anymore the local Ford dealership gives me the run around about repairs it seems to keep me coming back to pay for diagnostic repairs. Ford corporation when I call them puts me on several holds while they "supposedly" call local dealership about the issues (Ford corp acting like they don't know nothing). In addition I ve found out that all services, repairs aren't being reported as required by law to do. I tried to upload my videos/media of the SUV but it wouldn't upload to this website. If there is a specific email I could send the videos/media footage, the receipts/documents I'd do it immediately!! so, "please" let me know if there is an email!!.
