Rear back up camera in-op is damgerous in numerous aspects. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? problem is constant. Not taking to a dealer due to ridiculous prices and diag fees. I'm a tech and tried to diagnose issues with no answers. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? not yet. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? unknown. Purchased private party with issues (05/01/2026). Looked at 3 other Ford Flexs from this generation that all had the same issues when looking to purchase a vehicle and no one had a solution for it.

Back up camera has failed.

The drivers side door is showing that it is open randomly when I am driving down the road. (door is closed and locked) the lights and alarm will come on and makes it unable to see at night when driving. This is a safety issue and needs to be recalled due to unsafe driving conditions. The door sensor is a issue that needs to be fixed.

Door ajar lights continuously show on when all doors are closed. My interior lights will not go off and impairs my vision at night. Also because the ajar warnings are on my doors will not lock. I try to manually lock them and they automatically unlock while im driving. Not good while I have my 4 children in the car!.

Windshield wipers will stay on intermittently even though the dial is turned to off. It will happen sometimes right when I start the vehicle, sometimes they will activate when I use a turnsignal or just out of the blue. I can usually get them to stop by turning the dial on and off a few times but lately that hasn't worked. Now that it's getting to summer I've had to resort to removing the fuse to make them stop. I have contacted the dealer with a list of how often this happens but they say they have never heard of this issue but will be more than happy to charge me $109. 00 per hour to diagnose the issue.

2013 Ford Flex door ajar light stays on when doors are shut. Driver door and rear passenger door have the same issue. Dome lights stay on during initial reverse of vehicle causing zero visibility out rear of vehicle including side mirrors and rear view mirror. Multiple instances of near misses due to loss of visibility.

While driving on I-5 a heavy heavy rain was coming down and I had my wipers on the high setting and they worked for a little bit and then stopped moving at a high speed. While on the high setting they were going slower across the window then the continuous slow setting. I was unable to see and had to slow down and move over until my wipers could allow me to see properly. They continued this for the rest of my 150 mile drive moving slower on the high setting through the rain.

Rear view camera has failed. The screen goes black and has a “contact dealer” message.
