Ford Service Parts 10.1 Inch Center Stack: Back Over Prevention recall

NHTSA campaign 26E065000 · 46 units potentially affected · filed Sep 22, 2026

What's wrong

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 10.1-inch center stack screens installed in 2024-2026 Ranger vehicles during service. The screen may lose power and fail to display the rearview camera image. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that does not display reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

The remedy is currently under development. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed October 7, 2026. Additional letters will be sent when the remedy is available. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 26C42. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on September 25, 2026.
