Official summary
Some 2020-2021 Aviator vehicles equipped with a 360 degree view camera system and built on or before 07-Dec-2020 may exhibit an intermittent blank or blue screen when placed into reverse but return to normal when placed into drive. This condition may be more noticeable during cool or colder temperatures. To correct the condition, reprogram the image processing module B (IPMB) using the latest software version of the appropriate Ford scan tool. For claiming, use causal part 19H405 and applicable labor operations in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.
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.
