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.

Wireless Apple Carplay KEEPS disconnecting! All the time, phone calls drop all the time and sometimes the system refuses to connect to my phone. All updates are up to date and I always see Wireless Apple Carplay improvements... nothing AT all has happened. Please fix if possible!
