A software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank image, or the image may remain on the display after the backing event has ended. OFFICIAL REPORTED CONSEQUENCE A rearview camera that displays a blank image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle. A rearview image that continues to be displayed after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse may distract the driver. Both of these situations can increase the risk of a crash. OFFICIAL REPORTED REMEDY Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72. OWNER PREPARATION Keep the affected display or visibility function and the circumstances of an observed problem in the record. Do not recreate a visibility failure in traffic.

YOUR SERVICE QUESTIONS 1. Does the manufacturer confirm that campaign 25V442000 applies to this VIN, including the report’s equipment and production restrictions?

The source does not explicitly establish current remedy availability. Ask the manufacturer about the applicable remedy, required parts or software, appointment arrangements and any interim instructions. Discussion status / answer: __________ 3. Which image, lamp or visibility function is covered by this campaign, and what should I do while the remedy is outstanding?

Which module and software completion record demonstrate that the update for 25V442000 was applied? Ask the service provider how the campaign-specific software remedy is documented.

What dated document records the remedy performed under 25V442000, and what should I do if the reported concern remains? Keep campaign completion and unresolved symptoms as separate questions.
