    The rear backup camera does not work. The rear backup camera by Ford has been recalled for other vehicles but not for the Mustang. Your agency fined Ford millions of dollars for not recalling the rear backup camera. So Ford recalled the rear backup camera only on certain vehicles not on all vehicles with the same camera. What are you going to do about it? Ford continues to say there's nothing wrong with the rear camera in their vehicles even though you have more complaints for the rear camera than other complaints in other vehicles than the few that they recalled to make it seem like they were doing the right thing. Ford should recall all cameras affected.

    My 2017 ford mustang gt has 27,000 mile on it. I was driving home from work and just went through a traffic circle and I was in 1gear when I went to shift I could not shift. The clutch blew apart while driving normal and it is the factory clutch. Pictures of the equipment involved are available and show no sign of wear or abuse just that it separated. This could have been a major is had I been on a major highway when it happened
