The rear-view camera on certain versions of the Ford Transit may stop working due to a manufacturing fault.
A safety fault has triggered a recall of more than 1500 examples of the Ford Transit van in Australia.
The 1559 affected vehicles are stamped Model Years 2021 and 2023.
“The rear-view camera may not display the rear-view image whilst reversing as intended,” the recall notice says.
“If the rear-view camera display does not continually display the rear-view image whilst reversing the vehicle it could increase the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to any persons located behind the vehicle.
“Ford will contact affected owners in writing requesting they make an appointment at their preferred Ford Authorised Dealership for inspection and repair, free of charge.
Drive has contacted Ford Australia to find out if vehicles have been impacted locally. This story will be updated with its response.
