About 2 weeks ago our 2024 Escape had a back-up camera freeze event just like was happening on our 2023 Ford Maverick. The Maverick had a recall for the problem but as of now no recall yet listed for the Escape having the same issue.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
