Defect Description:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

I had a recall repaired on my 2017 Ford Mustang at a Ford dealership, the recall repair had to do with the backup/rearview camera not working properly. After they repaired the wiring in the trunk compartment, the back up camera is still not working properly and becomes blank or distorted when putting the vehicle in reverse. I called the dealership to have it looked at and fixed because the nhtsa website states that "Dealers will inspect and repair the decklid wiring harness AND/OR REPLACE THE REARVIEW CAMERA, as necessary, FREE OF CHARGE.". The dealership inspected my 2017 Mustang, again, and sent me a text message with a website link attached stating the cost for the repair and that I would need to pay for the repair totaling $316.59.
