The Ford Maverick is being recalled, again.
In the regular flow of Ford recalls the 2022-2024 Maverick is the latest offender. Ford has issued a recall for 144,516 pickups because the backup camera display can freeze.
Ford said the frozen image displayed on the infotainment screen while in reverse could result in a false representation of where the vehicle is relative to its surroundings.
This could lead to an increased risk of crash, or worse, backing over something or someone.
The root issue, according to Ford, is improper memory management within the software that causes a component in the image processing path to fail.
Ford said it is aware of two accidents due to this issue, but no related injuries.
Ford dealerships were notified of the issue on Sept. 16, and letters will be mailed to customers beginning Sept. 30.
Customers will need to take their Mavericks to a Ford dealership for a free software update of the truck’s touchscreen infotainment system.
Vehicles affected by the recall were built between Feb. 3, 2021 and Nov. 28, 2023.
Owners can contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or Ford’s customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and reference NHTSA recall campaign number 24V-684.
