2 Sensing System Camera problem of the 2019 Ford Flex

Failure Date: 12/29/2024

Rear backup camera stopped working.

3 Sensing System Camera problem of the 2018 Ford Flex

Failure Date: 11/05/2024

Backup camera goes from working to blue screen when backing up. I've reset the settings but continue to have the same issue. Very dangerous. It's the same issue/problem that you just fined Ford $165 million dollars. The models covered by the Ford recall included the 2020 Ford edge, escape, expedition, explorer, f-150, mustang, ranger and transit, as well as the Lincoln corsair and nautilus. Why isn't this 2018 model included in the recall by Ford? how do I get it covered? seems arbitrary that the recall ends with 2020 models.
