Owner Complaints (2)
Your 2024 Ford Edge is part of a recall (Campaign 25V315000) for the back-over prevention system, but Ford hasn't made the repair parts available yet. You and other owners have reported that the center display goes blank when reversing, with no warning light, meaning the backup camera or sensors may not be working properly. Your dealer has confirmed that parts aren't in stock and cannot perform the repair at this time. The fix will likely involve replacing or reprogramming the backup camera system or its control module once parts become available.

Your rear-view camera display is staying on the screen after you shift from reverse to drive, even though no warning light appears. This problem started intermittently but is now happening regularly. Your Ford dealer couldn't reproduce the issue, so it wasn't repaired.
