The reverse camera is currently on recall. My vehicle has been experiencing intermittent camera issues as the recall describes. Ford's recall resolution states that the issue has to be replicated while with a technician to be fixed. While my vehicle was with the dealership for it's recall inspection the issue was not able to be duplicated regardless of the multiple occurrences over several months. We feel this does not adequately take care of the recalled problem and continues to present a safety concern until it is corrected. The earliest occurrence of this issue was documented on August 29, 2025 and has continued to occur since that date.
Rear camera recall timely manner complaint 25SA9/25v695
Two issues actually 1. Back up camera gives the blue screen. Says unavailable and contact dealer. I have not yet as this just started. I am seeing a bunch of complaints on this though. 2. When I roll all the windows down then roll them up, the back triangle windows don't go up all the way. I have to get out of the car and pull them up all the way. Dealer said I just need to lube the edge and the groove they sit in. Which was tried. Didn't work. Could be a safety issue if I have to pull over and get out of the car to pull the windows up.
The backup camera stopped working and I notice that there is a big recall on millions of vehicles for the same problem that my vehicle is having. I would also like my backup camera fixed. It just stopped displaying the image and it’s a safety hazard.
Back up camera is showing the objects behind me on the opposite side that they are on.
Rear view camera occasionally does not display and display reads something like "rear view camera disabled - contact dealer".
2020 and above Mustang Ecoboost 2.3L engines are supposed to have the revised engine block design to mitigate coolant intrusion into cylinders and head gasket leak issues. My 2020 model year Mustang Ecoboost with the updated block, is suffering from coolant intrusion into cylinder #1. Confirmed by independent ASE certified repair shop as well as Ford dealership. No Codes. Symptoms includes cold start misfires and cold start white smoke from exhaust. MPG was inconsistent as well since the air/fuel ratio is disturbed by coolant intrusion. Car is at roughly 37K miles. IF ISSUE IS NOT REMEDIED, YOUR ENGINE MAY BLOW UP DURING OPERATION WITHOUT WARNING.
My back-up camera is periodically unavailable.
After driving for 2 blocks, my car would not drive when hitting the gas pedal, the engine only reved. Unable to move the car in any gear, pedestrians helped push my car out of the middle of the road. Towed the car to a Ford dealership because the Ford app on my phone said "shift solenoid stuck in off position". Upon diagnosis the dealership said yes the solenoid is stuck in the off position but now the gears are slipping and you need a brand new transmission. This is the 10r80 automatic transmission that has had problems like this nationwide. I don't understand how this has not been recalled yet. With 63,000 miles a transmission should not be failing. There have been hundreds of documented cases of this specific transmission failing for countless reasons involving internal components.
A 2020 Ford Mustang eco boost premium 2.3L L4 DOHC 16 valve 6-speed manual with push button start convertible top burst into flames on [XXX] at about [XXX]. The entire car and the black box were consumed by flames that spread to my carport, shed and mobile home. From what I read; it might have been designed for a road racing car. I am [XXX] , and requested a small car from Enterprise and this is the only car they had for me. Zero to 60 mph: 4.9–5.7 sec Zero to 100 mph: 13.5–15.5 sec Standing ¼-mile: 13.4–14.3 sec Top speed: 145–155 mph. Why would they have put [XXX] in this car? I drove it as cautiously as I drive my 2011 Taurus. I did nothing to cause this fire. I have reached out to FMC and Enterprise and have finally come to terms that I have to ask for charity to get the home livable. We run a gas generator for one air conditioner, small frig and well pump for water. The roof leaks, the firefighters puled every outlet in the rooms near where the fire entered my home. The electric meter was pulled off my pole as is standard procedure in my county. Now I am begging for a new roof and a new 200 amp box and all new wiring so the county will allow the electric to be connected again. FMC did not design this car well. It caused a disaster for me and my family. I cannot afford a new home, I just want to get this one livable. Entreprises had RIMKUS do a complete investigation which revealed nothing.

While driving at about 75mph the passenger door unlocked and opened by itself. We got an door not closed warning light on the dash and the warning chime in addition the horn was blowing in intervals of 2 quick beeps and repeated until we were able to pull over and reclose the door. About 1 hour later same conditions the same thing happened on the drivers side. We have since discovered from the dealer that here is a campaign number of 21N10 for this issue. Holiman Ford of Maple Shade NJ took the car in right away.
I rented a 2020 Ford Mustang on 01/16/2024. I drove it home and didn't use it until 01/28/2024 for short trip to the grocery store. I waited in the car and kept it running while my daughter shopped. The car shut itself off twice, but there were no red warning lights. So I restarted with the push button, and after the trip drove the car home and parked in my drive. Two days later, on 02/01/2024, the car ignited itself and burned so hot it set the carport, shed and mobile home on fire, in that order. The fire department were called out and saved part of the mobile home. The car was seen going on fire before the structures. The rental car company used a fire investigation company who towed the car (for evidence). However, they have not given me their report.
2020 FORD MUSTANG. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO NHTSA SAFETY RECALL 20V-575. THE CONSUMER TRIED TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER A 2 YEAR PERIOD, BUT INFORMED THE CAMERA IS ON BACK ORDER.
Evaporation Core is leaking. Many people have reported the same issue. Refrigerant was leaked into the car while driving and now needs a costly repair. The vehicle was only looked over by a mechanic. There is/was no warning lamps.
Brake light switch stopped working at around 30k miles. Cruise control stopped working and acceleration does not work. Will go no more than 45 mph and stall and stop.
RENTING VEHICLE FOR LONG TERM USE. DRIVE AS MOSTLY SINGLE WOMAN AND COMMUTE UP TO 2 HRS. SIDE LIGHTS ARE ATTENTION GRABBER FOR NIGHT TIME USE. EX DRIVING ON 8 AND STOPPING AT REST STOP OR FOR GAS DREW MUCH UNWANTED ATTENTION. MY CELL PHONE SLID UNDER PASSENGER SEAT AND I HAD TO EXIT VEHICLE MOVE CAR FORWARD AND BACK TO TRY AND PRY OUT. THIS COULD HAVE BROKEN MY NEEDED MEANS OF COMMUNICATION OR HURT MY HAND AS SEAT IS LOW FOR BETTER COMFORT BUT NO ROOM TO GRAB THINGS UNDERNEATH. ALSO BACK SEATS STRAP TO ALLOW ENTRY TO TRUNK. AS AN ADVOCATE THIS IS AN EASY ACCESS TO STOW AWAY PASSENGERS OR HAVE SOMEONE HIDE IN TRUNK. THE TRADITIONAL STRAP IN BETWEEN SEAT AND MUCH TIGHTER MAKES THIS MORE OF A PROCESS BUT WOULD MAKE MORE SENSE TO DRIVERS LIKE MYSELF AS A VICTIM OF SEXUAL ASSAULT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
