BACK OVER PREVENTION:SOFTWARE
- The defect
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2023 F-Super Duty F-250, F-350, and F-450 vehicles previously repaired incorrectly under recall number 23V-573. The default rearview camera image may not be displayed when using the Pro Trailer Hitch Assist feature.
- What it can cause
- An incorrect rearview camera image can reduce the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will update the Advanced Drive Assistance System (ADAS) module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S17.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 355 vehicles this is a small campaign: 53% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Ford vehicles have been recalled over the back over prevention 23 times before this, most recently in January 2025 as 25V048000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 88 complaints with NHTSA, 51 of them before this campaign was filed. 7 of those name the back over prevention, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in May 2023, 1 year before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 16 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V489000 (back over prevention), 26V204000 (visibility), 26V104000 (electrical system), 25V455000 (fuel system, gasoline).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Ford Motor Company with NHTSA on February 28, 2025 as campaign 25V134000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
