This recall has nothing to do with your 2016. Yours is a broken wire in the trunk harness. Do a search, there are a few threads on this.I have been struggling with mine for almost a year. I'm trying to track the wiring. Since it is so intermittent, I can't always expect a malfunction. Wish this recall would have something definitive to help me fix mine.
I don't know if Ford publishes the reason for the failure, though.
Actually, I think that would be more reliable than the original camera, and the image quality would be incomparably higher.I had the recall done today... it didn't take long either.
You may want to reconsider getting it done... I'm not impressed with their fix!
Its right around $299.How much is the camera? If my car ever develops that issue (it's working fine now), I'd probably just buy it and install it myself if less than 200 bucks. I guess you'd surmise with this I don't like to take my cars to dealers... and you'd be correct .
I think the recall includes the entire harness for the camera, not just the camera itself.There's something I don't get. They say it's an electrical connection that's faulty (which probably means some overly stretched cables in the trunk lid, which break when you open and close the trunk too many times), yet they replace the camera. How come?
