The rearview camera is so cloudy you can barely see what's behind you.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford F-250. The contact stated he was unable to visibly see the camera screen and would see a white foggy screen instead. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the front and rear cameras to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired but was pending repairs. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

Problem: Backup Camera fuzzy/not clear. It is available to be inspected. I cannot see anything through the camera in most lighting conditions. I cannot see people when banking up. It was not like this when I first bought the truck new. It has gotten progressively worse. I've not taken it to the dealer because a replacement costs over $500 installed and they install the same faulty camera.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-250. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL FIVE CAMERAS ON THE VEHICLE WERE FOGGY MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE IMAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER KEN GRODY FORD #1 ORANGE COUNTY FORD (6211 BEACH BLVD, BUENA PARK, CA 90621, (714) 521-3110) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CAMERAS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000.

I SEE THAT THE 2020 FORD TRUCKS HAVE A BACKUP CAMERA PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM ON MY 2017 F250. WORKS OR GOES BLANK OR WAVES. COULD IT BE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A MUCH OLDER PROBLEM AND GOES BACK SEVERAL YEARS?? THIS HAPPENS MANY TIMES ON DIFFERENT DAYS. THANK YOU FOR ANY INPUT.
