The camera intermittently fails to display a proper image when the vehicle is placed in reverse. Specifically, the screen either remains blank, displays a distorted image, or inverts the image entirely. These malfunctions significantly impair rear visibility and pose a safety hazard, particularly in environments with limited space or pedestrian traffic. I have narrowly avoided several incidents with other vehicles or pedestrians, due to this camera malfunction.  I am aware that Ford Motor Company has issued a recall for similar rear-view camera defects affecting various models from the 2015 to 2019 production years. However, my vehicle\u2014despite exhibiting identical symptoms\u2014is not currently included in that recall.  Given the nature of the defect and its potential to compromise driver and pedestrian safety, I respectfully request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate this issue and consider expanding the scope of the existing recall to include the 2014 Lincoln MKT.  I had an independent service center check the camera.  The ASE-certified technician explained the issue appears to be a software problem that can only be handled by a Lincoln dealer. When I contacted a dealership, they said they were not aware of any fixes for the problem.  When the camera malfunctions, a message pops up on my information screen in the vehicle that tells me \"Camera is unavailable\" and to \"Contact the dealer.\"  There were no other warning messages or lamps of any kind.  I am prepared to provide photographic or video evidence of the malfunction upon request and am willing to cooperate with any further inquiries or inspections deemed necessary.  Thank you for your consideration of this matter.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"LINCOLN","productModel":"MKT","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
