My wife's Edge had a faulty backup camera too, but Ford didn't issue a recall, so I had to shell out hundreds of dollars for a new one and install it myself.

They also have defective ABS modules that corrode when in contact with brake fluid. They did issue a recall for it with the Fusion and MKX but not the Edge. Hers lost complete braking pressure while driving because the ABS valves stick open and bypass the line going to the brake calipers. Luckily, she didn't crash, but once again, I had to shell out $800 to get a new one and spent two days replacing it myself.
