1 Wiper problem

Failure Date: 04/11/2021

The rear backup camera is not working when you put the vehicle in reverse. I was told it was an issue with the camera, they replaced the camera - which I paid for - and its still not working! then they said its not the camera - again, I paid for a new camera, and they still have not been able to fix my vehicle. Today is sept 22, they have had my car since sept 1!!!! they've had it 3 weeks and have not been able to fix it! I did some research and found that the 2020 and 2021 Lincoln aviators have this problem and have been recalled. Someone also needs to recall the Navigator cause its also having this problem! here is the recall info for the aviator: vehicles recalled: 2020 and 2021 Lincoln aviator the problem: the video feed from the backup camera might not display when the SUV is in reverse. The fix: dealerships will update the image processing module software, free of charge. How to contact the manufacturer: owners may contact Ford at 800-392-3673. Nhtsa campaign number: not available yet. The Ford reference number for this recall is 21c09.

2 Wiper problem

Failure Date: 09/03/2020

The back-up camera system is inoperable. When vehicle is shifted into reverse, the screen that is supposed to display an image from the back-up camera of the area behind the vehicle is blacked out. I was informed by my local Lincoln dealer's service department that the back-up camera is defective and that, unfortunately, replacement cameras are on an indefinite nation-wide back order with no eta in sight. I feel that this is a serious safety hazard.
