Sorry, aber gerade ist bei uns wirklich gar nix zu holen. Unser Server ist im Wartungsmodus – und unser kleiner Bot versucht gerade, mit letzter Energie die Fehlermeldungen zu sortieren.
Ob’s ein Daten-Leck, ein Stromausfall im Cluster oder einfach nur ein mies gelauntes Bit war – wir wissen es noch nicht. Was wir aber wissen:
Das Daten-Drama eskalierte zu einer Server-Schmelze. Aber keine Sorge: Wir sind dran.
Was jetzt?
Bei unseren Kolleg:innen von inside digital läuft bestimmt alles rund – schau doch mal vorbei!
Oder du vertreibst dir die Zeit mit einem Besuch auf unseren Social-Media-Kanälen – zum Beispiel Instagram, YouTube oder TikTok. Da gibt’s immerhin keine Serverprobleme – versprochen.
Danke für deine Geduld. Unser Bot rebootet schon mit Hochdruck. 🔧
NewsFord’s Latest Recall Tied to Rising Crash Risk—1.4 Million Cars Affected
Do you own a Ford vehicle? The major car brand is now facing a massive safety recall due to a flaw that increases the risk of crashes, affecting over 1.4 million vehicles. Find out if your car is among those being recalled.
While safety recalls are common among car manufacturers, it becomes a concern when the numbers continue to rise. Ford is now among the automakers that have issued record-breaking recalls this year, and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down. The company has just announced its latest recall, affecting over 1.4 million vehicles due to a camera issue that increases the risk of crashes.
Several Ford Vehicles Are at Risk of Collision
The recall was issued just over a week ago and impacts a total of 1,448,655 vehicles. It primarily covers varying model years from 2015 to 2020, including the Ford C-Max, Ford Escape, Ford Explorer, Ford Fiesta, Ford Fusion, Ford Mustang, Ford Taurus, and Lincoln models MKT and MKZ.
Technically, the recall stems from rearview camera performance issues. According to documentation published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the camera may display “distorted, intermittent, and/or persistent loss of the rearview camera image.” This reduces the driver’s visibility and increases the risk of a collision when reversing.
It’s reported that more than 1% of the affected vehicles have confirmed defects, and there are already documented crashes linked to the issue.

The recall was initiated and published by NHTSA, which is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation. However, due to the similarity of this defect to a recent global recall, it’s possible that the same vehicle models in other countries may also be affected. So far, no official statements have been issued by transportation agencies outside the U.S. regarding this specific recall.
Ford Is Replacing the Defective Camera
Ford has informed owners that Ford and Lincoln dealers will inspect the rearview camera component and replace it if necessary, free of charge.
Notification letters have already been sent to affected owners outlining an interim fix for the camera issue. A follow-up letter will be mailed in June 2026 when the final remedy becomes available. Alternatively, owners can check their vehicle status by entering their VIN on the NHTSA website.
Just last month, Ford recalled over 1.9 million vehicles worldwide for a similar parking camera flaw. That recall included models such as the Ford Edge, Ford Ranger, and the Ford F-Series trucks (F-250 through F-550).
This year is shaping up to be a rough one for Ford. The company has already issued more than 103 safety recalls and alerts, which surpasses last year’s total of 77.
