1. Backup camera giving a static picture and most of the time is showing black. Sometimes it works as intended. I know there is a recall out for this on newer Ford Expeditions. 2. Cannot see low objects directly behind the vehicle. 3. Problem has not been looked at by a dealer or service center. 4. Problem has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. 5. Sometimes the message comes up backup camera not working. This has been going on for the last 8 or 9 months. This problem is very intermittent and works for weeks at a time and then reappears.

THE BACKUP CAMERA BECOMES BLURRY AND SILL DISTORTED. WHY ARE ONLY NEW FORD EXPEDITIONS RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM? THIS PROBLEM STARTED JUST OVER A YEAR AFTER PURCHASE AND I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THIS FIXED. I TRY NOT TO RELY ON THIS AMD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY FEATURES, AND IT DOES NOT PROPERLY WORK. SOMETIMES IT DOES AND SOMETIMES IT IS SO BLURRY AND DISTORTED I CAN NOT TELL IF SOMETHING OR SOMEONE IS BEHIND MY VEHICLE. IT IS WHEN I BACK UP THAT THE PROBLEM OCCURS.
