What's wrong, in plain English

Certain Ford Super Duty F-250, F-350, and F-450 trucks are equipped with the Pro Trailer Hitch Assist feature. When this feature is in use, the normal rearview camera image may not appear on the screen. Instead of seeing the standard backup camera view, the driver may not get that display, which can reduce how much of the area behind the truck the driver can see while backing up.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
2. Contact your Ford dealer, or Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.
3. The software update repair is free.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 23V573000.
