Ford issued a recall last week for 330,784, 2015-2017 model year Mustangs with potential backup camera issues. The issues can cause the camera to go blank altogether, or to distort the image so that it is difficult to view obstacles that could be behind the vehicle.Dealers will inspect and then subsequently repair the deck lid wiring harness and replace the defective rearview camera in an affected vehicle, for free. Owners will first receive a letter via U.S. mail notifying them of the safety risk starting March 7. Once a fix is available, owners will receive a second letter advising a trip back to the dealer.
