Failure Date: 01/09/2025

My camera (rearview) had been dysfunctional for quite sometime and I could not use it. I finally got it fixed 1/9/25 when I brought my car in for a oil change. I bought a great warranty and only had to pay my deductible of $100. Within a month, I got a recall letter for the same reason with the camera. I called Ford corp office and they told me to get the invoice from Ford and send it with the letter to you for reimbursement. So excited to get me $100. 00 back for this. Ford highlighted the part for you since the oil change was on the invoice. Any questions please call me at work at 702-xxx-xxxx. Thank you.
