Official summary
Some 2018 EcoSport vehicles equipped with rear parking aid camera may intermittently exhibit the active reverse guideline overlays not present on the front display interface module (FDIM) when reverse gear is selected. This may be due to the steering straight ahead position not stored into the power steering control module (PSCM). Operation of the active reverse guidelines are restored after the vehicle is driven in a forward direction and reverse gear is selected during the drive cycle. Do not attempt any repairs at this time. Engineering is investigating, monitor OASIS for updates.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
