2015 Ford Escape Electrical problems

I have a 2015 Ford Escape, and the rear view camera has been recalled. My rear camera that is inoperable has caused me almost several accidents. I feel very unsafe and the remedy to fix it has not been authorized yet. The safety of myself and others is largely put at risk. I am still waiting for parts to arrive at the Ford dealership so this recall can be taken care of. Until then, I do have an attorney on standby in case an accident does occur due to the failure of the rear view camera on the vehicle not working. Please be advised!

The rear-view camera could display a blank or distorted image on the center display screen when the vehicle is in reverse. We also receive a message that the rear-view camera is unavailable on the center display screen.

Sound control module, can't hook up phone for hands free driving

At least once per day the back up camera goes black. While I am in the act of backing up or starting to back up. This has been happening for over 3 years. No one believed me at the dealership for years. Now there is a recall finally recognizing the issue and Ford can not fix it. I am left dealing with this. Also electrical issues with the car doors not opening with code or key fob, back windshield washer blades going off unexpectedly and they would not stop until I shut the entire car down.

theres an electrical problem concern the tcu my doors are locking and unlocking and the car is indicating ive had several accidents and i havent the radio is coming on automaticlly and the lights flicker and the horn turning signals and lights flicker and wont turn off unlesss i hit the key fob button im trying nto to get my groceries stolen or my vehicle tampered with and its hard if the components arnt working i dont care about the cause i just need a safe vehicle i dont have money to waiste i am trying to find a job and i cant afford the labor for a malware attack

Back up camera is STILL not working as intended. When backing up camera goes blank. This already an existing recall, but its been a long time since its been issued and I dont think they are trying to remedy it.

The battery keeps dying even though it's been tested and is good. Lights keep shorting out I've had to replace the brake light and wires twice. The coolant is disappearing causing the vehicle to overheat even after driving ahort diatances but no puddle is left to show a cracked tank or something similar.

Dash board panel comes on when you turn on the car, but once you put it in drive it automatically shuts off accept the rpm gauge, car goes into limp mode when driving and causes it to not allow any acceleration or movement of vehicle.

The rear-view camera does not work. Very hard to back up. There are Blind spots with this vehicle. Ford notified us last year and still have not notified us for the repair. At first, it was intermittent, now not working at all. Ford has not given any time schedule to me at all. I think 10 months is long enough to have this issue rectified.

Ford is not providing parts to fix safety recall 25SA9 / NHTSA Recall 25V695. Our backup camera has been displaying "rear view camera is unavailable" for months. Notices went out in October and they STILL do not have parts available to fix it. This is a huge safety hazard for our 16 year old son and it's ridiculous that they refuse to fix it in a timely manner. NINE MONTHS since we received the letter.

Vehicle is currently part of the open recall for reverse camera not functioning or not displaying properly. Problem was present long before the issued recall in 2025. No communication from manufacturer on timeline to remedy issue. Manufacturer has not delivered on making parts available and issue persists. This is unacceptable.

The back up camera cuts out randomly. Sometimes mid back up. It has been recalled for quite sometime and there is still no remedy available

the rear camera showed " unavailable" on the center display screen so I had to get this fixed and i paid $658.34 to get this fixed because the recall informational stated that "ford motor company is working to provide parts for this repair. when the remedy becomes available, ford motor company will notify you via mail to schedule a service appointment with your dealer for repairs to be completed free of charge" i was unable to wait for this IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE's parts to "come available" - not even sure what that is supposed to mean, but i would like reimbursement for this expense and not sure how to go about it.

Rear view camera doesn't work. Ford just recalled a bunch of 2015-2019 vehicles for this exact issue but the escapes didnt get a recall. I have been having this issue for a few months now. The screen with go blue or black and then say no camera available.

backup camera is not working. says to call dealership. dealership says they dont know what is wrong with it. safety hazard for backing up.

Back up camera glitches, shows images upside down, or not at all. This has been happening for at least 6+ months. Component has not been inspected. There is a current recall on Edge and Expedition in the same years as mine but the Escape was not included in in the recall.

The car won't shift into the intended gear.The car stalls as well. The transmission fault service now light is on.

I'm having transmission problems.. And it stopped in the middle of traffic.. And the shop my car is in said they've repairing transmissions in a lot 2015 ford escape vehicles.. And the engine leaks these are serious defects that (ford) needs to fix for the owners of this (year) it's costing $5,000 to replace for the transmission.. I'm so so so so disappointed in this vehicle and the company.. Your doing recalls for all these others vehicles but the 2015 escape .

Sunroof will not close and every time it rains it leaks so much to the point that it's going to cause more electrical issues. I will not take this back to the Randy Marion dealership in west Jefferson NC they also sold me this car with a bad transmission which ended back up in the shop for 3 plus months. They were completely incompetent about handling the situation. So I will not go back to them. Also they sold this cat with seatbelts that are so lose if I were to have a wreck I would probably go through the windshield. They didn't want to repair that without me handling the bill.

Check engine light went on and code P1450 for evaporative emissions purge valve. After refueling vehicle, it does not start without reving the engine at a high rate and still sometimes does not start. This is a common warranty item on many Fords during the time but not for this specific VIN
