Problem Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022 Transit vehicles equipped with a rearview camera. These vehicles may have a missing audio control module (ACM), resulting in no rearview camera image while in reverse gear. Risk A missing rearview camera image reduces the driver's visibility of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix Dealers will install the audio control module and program the unit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 7, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 22S54.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 22S54 is the number Ford assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 22V621000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is 22S54 the same recall as 22V621000?

Yes. 22S54 is Ford’s own number for it; 22V621000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does 22S54 cover?

2022 Ford Transit, 46 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the 22S54 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
