What's wrong, in plain English

Ford is recalling certain Expedition, Super Duty F-250, F-350, F-450, F-550 and F-600 trucks, and the Lincoln Corsair. On these vehicles, the rearview camera may show a blank or distorted picture instead of a clear view of what is behind the vehicle. Dealers will replace the rearview camera as needed, free of charge. Ford has already mailed notification letters to owners, and a customer service line is available for questions about the recall.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have the camera replaced, or call Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 (Ford's recall number is 25S05).
3. The repair is free of charge.

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 25V048000.
