Critical recall notice: A second round of recalls just hit—see if your car is included
- Replies 0
If you own a vehicle from a well-known automaker, there’s an urgent safety update you need to know about.
A re-recall has been issued, affecting over 50,000 vehicles due to unresolved safety concerns.
These vehicles were previously recalled and repaired, but new reports indicate that the initial fixes may not have fully addressed the issues.
This latest recall follows multiple reports of persistent problems in vehicles that had already undergone repairs.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has documented four separate recalls, each tied to safety concerns that remain unresolved.
The primary issues involve malfunctioning rearview cameras, faulty battery monitoring systems, and window sensors that do not work as intended.
The recall applies to vehicles from various model years that were previously recalled under separate NHTSA notices.
Here’s a look at which models are included:
The first recalls attempted to resolve these problems with software updates and module recalibrations.
However, the new recall notices describe these previous repairs as “incorrect,” meaning that the underlying issues still exist.
This means that even if your vehicle was serviced under one of these earlier recalls, it may still be at risk.
Owners of the recalled vehicles will receive official notifications by mail starting April 24.
If your car is included, you can take it to an authorized dealership for a free software update or module recalibration.
If you want to check your vehicle's recall status now, you don’t have to wait for the letter.
You can enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the NHTSA recall database or check GrayVine’s recall database for the latest updates.
For further assistance, you can contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and inquire about recall numbers 25S25, 25S26, 25S27, and 25S28.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has documented four separate recalls, each tied to safety concerns that remain unresolved.
The primary issues involve malfunctioning rearview cameras, faulty battery monitoring systems, and window sensors that do not work as intended.
- Rearview camera failures: Some models display blank or distorted images, increasing accident risk while reversing.
- Battery monitoring issues: A module failure prevents the system from alerting drivers to low battery levels, which can lead to sudden power loss.
- Faulty window sensors: In some Super Duty models, the front windows do not properly retract when encountering an obstruction, raising injury concerns.
The recall applies to vehicles from various model years that were previously recalled under separate NHTSA notices.
Here’s a look at which models are included:
- 2021-2022 Edge – rearview camera display issues (recall number 22V-151).
- 2020-2023 Explorer, 2020-2023 Lincoln Aviator, 2020-2022 Lincoln Corsair – rearview camera malfunctions (recall number 23V-342).
- 2021-2024 Bronco Sport, 2022-2023 Maverick – battery monitoring failure leading to potential power loss (recall number 24V-267).
- 2023 Super Duty F-250 and F-350 – faulty window sensors that may not respond correctly (recall number 23V-507).
