Ford to recall over 254,000 SUVs in the US due to software issues, NHTSA says

(Reuters) – Ford Motor (F.N) is ‌recalling 254,640 SUVs in the U.S. over software issues that may result in the loss of rearview camera image and some advanced ⁠driver assistance (ADAS) features, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Tuesday.

Here are some details:

  • The recall includes Lincoln Navigator, Lincoln Nautilus, Lincoln Aviator and Ford Explorer SUVs, ‌according ⁠to the NHTSA.
  • An unexpected reset of an image processing software may cause loss of ⁠ADAS features like pre-collision assist, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring.
  • NHTSA said the ⁠software will be updated by a dealer or by ⁠the company through an over-the-air (OTA) update.
