What's wrong?
The Connected Touch Radio in 2022-2024 Ford Maverick trucks is the screen and audio head unit that also displays the rearview camera feed. When the truck is shifted into reverse, the software takes the camera signal, processes it, and shows a live image behind the vehicle. That live image is the part of the system owners rely on while backing up.
On affected Mavericks, the radio software handles memory incorrectly. Data builds up in the camera image processing path instead of being cleared correctly. When that happens, part of the system stops updating the picture, so the display freezes while the truck is in reverse. The screen then shows a stale image instead of the live view behind the truck.
There is no warning sign before failure. The camera image appears normal until the software stops updating it, so treat a frozen rearview image as a recall-related fault and use mirrors and direct visibility when backing up.
Who's affected?
Covers three Maverick model years tied to the same connected touch radio software.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific pickup truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
An inoperative rearview camera display reduces rear visibility and increases the risk of a crash while backing up. There is no warning sign before the problem appears, so use mirrors, check around the truck before reversing, and schedule the software update soon. Repair is free at any franchised Ford dealer.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Ford technician updates the Connected Touch Radio (CTR) software so the rearview camera display no longer freezes when the vehicle is in reverse. Parts and labor are covered under recall 24V684, so the software update is free. If you already paid for this CTR software repair before the recall notice, Ford's standard reimbursement plan is the path for a reimbursement request. Bring payment records and repair documentation to the service desk.
