2022OakvilleJune 29, 2021 through February 7, 2022

Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS and FSA VIN Lists.

 

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

In all of the affected vehicles, it is possible that the rear-view camera will display a distorted image or show a blank screen with a message that the “Camera is unavailable”. A rear-view camera that intermittently displays a blank or distorted image can reduce the driver’s view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

SERVICE ACTION

Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to update the APIM module. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

 

OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE

Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of April 25, 2022. Owners will be given the option of installing the software update themselves, or they can have their dealer perform the service for them.

PLEASE NOTE:

Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.

 

SOLD VEHICLES

  • FordeBay logo has not issued instructions to stop selling/delivering or driving used vehicles under this safety recall. Owners should contact their dealer for an appointment to have their vehicles remedied as soon as practicable. Owners can continue to safely drive their vehicles.
  • Immediately contact any of your affected customers whose vehicles are not on your VIN list but are identified in OASIS. Give the customer a copy of the Owner Notification Letter (when available) and schedule a service date.
  • Correct other affected vehicles identified in OASIS which are brought to your dealership.
  • Dealers are to prioritize repairs of customer vehicles over repairs of new and used vehicle inventory.

 

STOCK VEHICLES

  • Correct all affected units in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.
  • Use OASIS to identify any affected vehicles in your used vehicle inventory.

 

DEALER-OPERATED RENTAL VEHICLES

The Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act law effective June 2016 prohibits a rental company from selling, renting or leasing vehicles subject to a safety or compliance recall. Please consult your legal counsel for legal advice.

 

TITLE BRANDED / SALVAGED VEHICLES

Affected title branded and salvaged vehicles are eligible for this recall.                                               

 

OWNER REFUNDS

  • This safety recall must still be performed, even if the owner has paid for a previous repair. Claiming a refund will not close the recall on the vehicle.
  • FordeBay logo Motor Company is offering a refund for owner-paid repairs covered by this recall if the repair was performed prior to the date indicated in the reimbursement plan, which is posted with this bulletin. Owners are directed to seek reimbursement through authorized dealers or, at their option, directly through FordeBay logo Motor Company at P.O. Box 6251, Dearborn, MI 481216251.
  • Dealers are also pre-approved to refund owner-paid emergency repairs that were performed away from an authorized servicing dealer after the end date specified in the reimbursement plan. Non-covered repairs, or those judged by FordeBay logo to be excessive, will not be reimbursed.
  • Refunds will only be provided for the cost associated with APIM reprogramming to resolve a blank or distorted rear view image.

 

RENTAL VEHICLES 

Rental vehicles are not approved for this program.

 

ADDITIONAL REPAIR (LABOR TIME AND/OR PARTS)

Additional repairs identified as necessary to complete the FSA should be managed as follows:

CERTAIN 2021-2022 MODEL YEAR EDGE VEHICLES WITH SYNC 4 — APIM MODULE REPROGRAMMING DUE TO DISTORTED SCREEN

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

Module Programming

1. Check the vehicle’s State Of Charge Parameter Identification Data (PID) by performing the following:

  • Launch the Ford Diagnostic and Repair System (FDRS) and navigate to toolbox tab > datalogger > BCM and select BATT SOC PID.
  • Ensure that the BATT_SOC PID reads over 80%. If the PID is less than 80%, fully recharge the vehicle’s 12-volt battery using the appropriate Rotunda battery tester and charger.
  • Remove the charger from the vehicle and using FDRS, navigate to toolbox tab > BCM > Reset Battery.
  • Monitor Sensor Learned Values application. Perform the BMS reset.
  • Connect the Rotunda battery tester and charger  and set it to maintain 12.6 to 13.6 volts. Monitor the voltage real time using the indicator at the bottom right corner of FDRS to ensure that it is within this range.

NOTE: Verify that the negative cable of the charger is installed on a chassis or engine ground, and not   the 12 volt battery negative terminal to prevent the battery saver mode from activating on the vehicle.

NOTE: If the diagnostic software does not load or if the vehicle cannot be identified properly, make sure there is a good internet connection and the Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) is properly connected to the Data Link Connector (DLC).

NOTE: VCM 3 is recommended for improved data download time.

2. Log into FordeBay logo Diagnostic and Repair System (FDRS). Ensure FDRS is updated to the latest version at 31.6.7 or higher.

NOTE: A blank 32GB or larger USB flash drive is required for APIM, TCU, and GWM software

updates. Make sure the USB flash drive being used is formatted correctly. To see the available drives, hold down the Windows icon keyboard key and press the E keyboard key. Right click on the USB flash drive and select Properties. If File System under the General tab is not exFAT, the drive must be formatted. To format the USB flash drive, right click on the USB flash drive, select Format, select exFAT for the File System, and select Default Allocation Size for the Allocation Unit Size. De-selecting Quick Format is not necessary and will result in a lengthier operation.

NOTE: The USB drive does not have to be formatted between vehicles if you are performing the same program.

3. Start a new FDRS session.

NOTE: Vehicle information is automatically retrieved by the diagnostic software and a Network Test is run. Vehicle identification data appears on the screen when this is complete.

4. Select Toolbox tab.

 

STEPS 5 THROUGH 10 WILL BE USED MULTIPLE TIMES DURING STEPS 11 THROUGH 18.

5. Select Software Updates tab to see updates available.

6. Select the module from the Module Programming Sequence section below starting at Step 11.

7. When prompted by the FDRS, connect the USB flash drive to the personal computer (PC).

8. When prompted by the FDRS, safely remove/eject the USB flash drive from the PC, turn the vehicle to Key On Engine Running (KOER), and connect the USB to the media hub to install the software update. The update starts automatically and may take 10 minutes or longer to complete.

NOTE: It may take up to 5 minutes for the vehicle to recognize the USB flash drive with software update.

9. For APIM, TCU, and GWM USB software updates when SYNC touchscreen prompts to restart the vehicle:

  • Turn the vehicle OFF.
  • Open the driver door.
  • Wait ten minutes to allow the vehicle to power down.
  • Close the driver’s door.
  • Turn the vehicle to KOER.

10. Leave the USB drive inserted into the vehicle, until the vehicles infotainment display screen states programming successful.

NOTE: It may take up to 5 minutes before SYNC touchscreen displays Update Successful pop up. After 5 minutes if “Successful” pop up is not shown on SYNC touchscreen, remove the USB and select YES on the FDRS “Was the USB Update Successful” prompt (FDRS verifies if the module software update was successfully installed on the module).

NOTE: Repeat Steps 5-10 (while performing Steps 11-18) until no more software updates are available for modules covered in Steps 11-18.

Important Information for Module Programming

NOTE:  When programming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors.

  • Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps.
  • Connect FDRS/scan tool to a power source.

NOTE:  A good internet connection is necessary to identify the vehicle and to load the diagnostic software.

  • Inspect VCM/VCMM and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.
  • A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
  • Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors.
  • Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.).
  • Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
  • Disable FDRS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.
  • Create all sessions key-on-engine-off (KOEO).  Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process.

 

Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module

a. Disconnect the VCMII or VCMM from the data link connector (DLC) and your PC.

b. After ten seconds, reconnect the VCMII/VCMM to the DLC and the PC.  Launch FDRS.  The VCMII/VCMM icon should turn green in the bottom right corner of the screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the FDRS to VCM connection.

c. If you are using the same FDRS as the initial programming attempt, select the appropriate VIN from the Vehicle Identification menu.  If you are using a different FDRS, select “Read VIN from Vehicle” and proceed through the Network Test.

d. In the Toolbox menu, navigate to the failed module and Download/Run Programmable Module Installation (PMI). Follow the on-screen prompts.  When asked if the original module is installed, select “No” and continue through the installation application.

e. Once programming has completed, a screen may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps are followed in order.
