The rear camera warnings both visual and beeping sound did not activate while backing up. Safety of others was put at risk not warning them that the vehicle was backing up. Because of this failure, I backed into a pole causing the driver's side tail light to be cracked. The problem was reported to Fairway Ford who could not reproduced the failure. They contacted Ford "hotline" and Ford refused to acknowledge the failure. No police report was filed. Ford did not offer to inspect the vehicle. There were no former problems prior to this incident.

My Ford Maverick truck was purchased and delivered on [XXX]. From the very first day, I have experienced issues with the central infotainment screen. Specifically, the screen frequently freezes, particularly when using Google Maps. My vehicle is an essential tool for my daily work, as I am an air conditioning technician and spend long hours driving. Additionally, I have noticed a significant delay in the rearview camera display, which also frequently freezes. This poses a considerable risk to pedestrians and vehicles that may pass behind my truck, turning it into a serious safety and convenience issue. I have taken my vehicle to the dealership three times, leaving it for several days on each occasion, but the problems persist after every visit. I purchased my truck from "Planet Ford Spring" in Spring, TX, but due to its proximity to my residence, I have carried out maintenance and filed complaints regarding this issue at "Tomball Ford" in Tomball, TX. I have repeatedly requested that the service advisors involved in my case replace the screen or upgrade it to a more reliable system. However, they claim that, according to Ford’s procedures, they are not authorized to make such changes. I urgently request a definitive solution to this issue, as I cannot continue visiting the dealership month after month hoping for a resolution. This problem must be addressed immediately for safety reasons. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
