See attached document for complaint. I am writing because back in January I received a notice of recall to have the rearview camera replaced because of inverted, blank, or distorted image. I had that camera replaced for those very same symptoms several weeks before the recall was announced. After working at a Ford Dealer for 23 years, I do know that you refund the cost of any work done that would have fallen under a recall. The notice says that parts are unavailable now, but they were available, within on week, when I had the problem corrected. As such, I am asking for a refund now, because I know that some parts take nearly forever to get. For those vehicle sitting on lots that cannot be sold because of an open recall is very frustrating for the dealer. Again, I am asking for a refund now for work that would have fallen under this recall, #24S75.

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.

NHTSA #11690059

The backup camera is dysfunctional. It shows an inverted, upside-down image, sometimes it is just black or unavailable, it is glitchy. It is available for inspection upon request. The errors have made it unsafe to backup or see oncoming (from the rear) traffic. It is a known issue with a known recall. It is still ongoing with no solution "parts are not available" - for an unreasonable amount of time. It's a 2019. It's had problems since it was designed, yet it's SIX YEARS LATER and FORD has NOT come up with a solution. I have had it inspected by the FORD service department at the local dealership, and they have no clue other than that it's under recall without a solution. Sometimes the system tells you the camera isn't working, other times it doesn't. Where is the enforcement?

NHTSA #11684027

Back up camera cuts out/ goes blank at random. This is a safety issue as objects behind the car can not be seen. There currently a recall for this issue, however, only certain months of production. The recall needs to widen to include all 2019 Ford Flex vehicles. No warning prior to notify it is not working until rear camera is activated by placing the car in reverse. Screen is blank.

NHTSA #11674806

B pillar keyless entry panel became mostly detached while car was operating at highway speeds. My safety and the safety of others was compromised due to my alarm at the noise of the panel striking my vehicle. Panel struck my vehicle several times before the top half broke off and was lost, which also may have compromised the safety of drivers following me, as I did not see where it flew off to. Bottom half of panel is still attached by wiring and I have it secured to vehicle with tape. No warnings or notifications preceded this event. I didn't report it yet because I have not had time to find a replacement part. I recently saw that this may be a widespread issue among 2019 Flexes and not something I somehow caused to happen.

NHTSA #11680027

When the backup camera first malfunctioned everything was upside down. When I went online I was told to disconnect the battery cable, which seemed to fix it until the next time I put it in reverse. Now it works one out of ten times. It either shows objects upside down or the screen is filled with flashing blue and green or goes completely blank. It then shows "Camera Unavailable," i am very dependent on this camera so I'm anxious to get it repaired.

NHTSA #11671844

Backup camera has not worked for long time. Bartow Ford said part not available for recall but if I want to pay 823, they have the part. Without a backup camera it is like backing up a whale blindfolded.

Rear Camera intermeitently works or completely fails. Was backing out of a parking space and could not see and a car speed by the back up warning did beep and saved the day - if my camera had been working I would have seen the on coming car a little bit sooner. it's been months since the recall was issued when will a remedy be available? this should not take this long for Ford to remedy?

NHTSA #11660129

Trim panel on driver side door containing keyless entry pad blew off while traveling down highway, banged against car, then completely separated from vehicle and landed somewhere behind me on PA Turnpike.

A recall notice was issued for my vehicle in December 2024 for rear camera issues. It is now October 2025 - ten months after the recall notice. According to the Ford website recall service is still not available. Only approximately 30,000 vehicles were impacted by the recall. I have been without a rear camera now for over 8 months due to this issue. It has led to several near accidents while I was backing out between other vehicles in parking lots. This is a safety issue. Why has this issue not been resolved yet? Please contact Ford and push this issue on them.

NHTSA #11690746

Hello, This is my second 2019 Ford Flex Limited my previous vehicle did not have an issue with the rear back up camera. My current one does but it vin# is not on the the list. I went to Ford dealer ship and was told that because of the VIN# its does not qualified for the recall but the backup camera does not work always continuously. It appears the issue meets the criteria of my previous Flex I have picture of the failure.

NHTSA #11669602

A Safety recall for my 2019 Ford Flex rear-view camera has been open since the beginning of the year. A check with my local Ford dealer indicates a probable solution by March 2026. The explanation is "Parts are not available". I find this to be an unacceptable duration for "Parts are not available". This is a Ford problem that has existed for multiple years and multiple models as the camera image reversed on my 2012 Ford Explorer

NHTSA #11659230

This recall has been since the Dec 20, 2024 and there is no resolution for this. Called the local dealership multiple times and they had no additional information and no ETA on resolution. This is safety concern due to the visibility at the back of the vehicle when backing up. This is clearly not being resolved in timely manner. Also note: the lack of this resolution has limited my resale value of this vehicle which has/is affecting many others that own this vehicle. Note the camera started glitching about a year ago.

1) Trim piece that includes the keyless entry pad on driver's door, broke off while driving 80 mph on highway. The keyless entry pad was left hanging on by the electrical cords. It is available for inspection as it has not been fixed yet. 2) I didn't see where it went, but it had the potential to fly off and hit any cars behind me. 3) Car has been inspected by mechanic at Ford dealership and provided cost for part to fix. 4) Car has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance rep, etc. 5)No warning lamps, messages or any symptoms prior to failure. I honestly thought something hit my car. I ended up pulling over to assess the situation. It was then that I noticed the panel broke off and the remaining piece was left hanging.

While driving down a highway at 70mph, the keypad on the driver's door detached from the body and was hanging by wires. We had to pull over. We couldn't get it back in so we put the window down and had to zip tie it to the door frame, leaving the window down for our entire long trip. We were afraid it was going to fly off and hit the car behind us, causing damage and a safety hazard. We took the car to Stevens Ford Jersey City and had it repaired. This is a cost we paid for. The only warming sign was a constant whistling sound we would hear.

On 6/4/2025, the driver side front door B-pillar trim piece separated from the vehicle. The tape that joins the trim piece to the door sheet metal completely sheared. The adhesive is still fine but the form separated. The part is connected only to the door through the wire hardness of the keyless entry. TSB 20-2427 stated the issue is "loose". But the actual issue is a flying part with a connecting string.

B Pillar trim on drive-side door has fallen off multiple times when driving at speeds i’d say about 50mph. Have been lucky not to have lost it as it was barely held on by the keyless entry cord.

NHTSA #11681751

The black glossy plastic applique on the Driver's Door Window Frame (also containing the Keyless Entry Keypad) blew off on the Expressway at approximately 70 MPH. While the wire harness retained the lower portion of the applique, the applique cracked from the force of the separation, for which the bottom third of the applique hung from the harness whereby the upper two-thirds of the applique became a projectile and flew onto the expressway. After sharing this with a friend (also owning a 2019 Ford Flex), he said his came off last year. Upon further studying this matter, it appears that in Ford's wisdom they only used small strips of double-sided tape to retain this; for which there are many reports of this same failure mode: [XXX] In their infinite wisdom, Ford now only sell the Applique Panel with the Keypad (Ford Part Number BA8Z7420555AC ), rendering it at a MSRP of $228.83 just for the replacement part. The Ford Parts Counter Person said they sell a lot of these, due to the poor design and retention. As this is a hazard to others on the road (e.g. potentially becoming a projectile) Ford should be forced to Recall this defect.

The keyless entry keypad - driver sides B-Pillar front door’s trim panel came loose while driving on I-95 today (approximately 70 mph). It was not apparently loose before this event.
