Complaint Summary

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Owner Narrative

The car gives two messages, "Front Camera Fault Service Required" and "Pre-Collision assist not available." The cruise control does not work, however, the front camera does work. I had the vehicle scan done at the Ford dealer and was told it needs a 7 hour software update, after which it may need cables replaced. I do not understand how software goes bad. I do understand something may have happened to cables but that would not be checked until they had charged me $ 1,400 for a software update. This is a safety issue and, from what I read on the Mach E forum, is not where near unique to my vehicle.
