Dearborn, MI – October 28, 2025 – Ford (NYSE:F) is recalling 291,901 heavy-duty pickup trucks whose rearview cameras may not show a clear image. This defect reduces visibility while reversing, upping the chances of a crash and injury.

- 2020 – 2022 Ford F-350 SD

Recall summary
Due to a software error, the rearview camera image in the affected vehicles may appear too dark or too light, making it difficult for the driver to see the area behind the vehicle.
Recall risks
Without a clear rearview camera image to aid visibility, the driver is more likely to crash into surrounding objects or pedestrians while backing up.
