Nearly three months to the day after another significant recall for failing shocks, the first generation of the revitalized Ford Bronco SUV is getting hit with another recall, this one due to the backup camera. It’s not the first time, either; this latest recall expands on one issued in the summer of 2023.
Affected vehicles include nearly 129,000 model-year 2022-23 Broncos. The 360-degree camera system may not display a rearview image when the SUV is in Reverse, reducing the driver’s view of what’s behind and increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will simply replace the rearview camera for free as a fix. Owners will be notified May 5, but those with further questions can contact the automaker at 866-436-7332 (Ford’s number for this recall is 23S48), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or visit its website to check your vehicle identification number and learn more.
