An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger car (Ford Mustang) - Repair. Defect in the device for checking immediately behind the vehicle when reversing (rear-view camera). Defective component (part name): Device for checking immediately behind the vehicle when reversing (rear-view camera). Condition and cause of the defective structure, equipment or performance: ① Due to an improper manufacturing process, terminals in some rear-view cameras are not correctly soldered to the printed circuit board inside the camera, resulting in poor contact. Consequently, electrical conduction is insufficient and the image intermittently disappears, creating a risk of collision when reversing. ② Due to an inappropriate installation position and inappropriate selection of material for the rigid scroll tube enclosing the rear-view camera wiring routed inside the trunk lid, opening and closing the deck lid can cause the internal wiring to rub against the inside of the rigid scroll tube and break. Consequently, the rear-view camera image may disappear, creating a risk of collision when reversing. Published 2023-08-25.
What to do now
(Improvement campaign notification number) 改678. Corrective measures: ① On all vehicles, check the rear-view camera part number and replace the camera with a properly functioning part if it is affected by the defect. ② On all vehicles, inspect and reroute the trunk lid harness.
