Ford Motors recently disclosed that its recall of over 200,000 vehicles is because of issues related to its rearview camera, which could distract drivers or decrease a driver's view.

The company highlighted the issue in a report to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration late last month, stating that in some cases the image from the camera stays on longer than it should, or a blank image comes up.

Ford customers who are impacted by the error can get their software updated at a dealer free of charge. Customers who are potentially impacted should also be getting a letter in the mail about the recall by July 28.

Some of the models that could be impacted by the recall, according to USA Today, include:

2018-2022 Ford Transit Connect
2019-2020 Lincoln MKZ, Ford Edge, Lincoln Continental, Ford F-150, Lincoln Nautilus, Fusion
2019-2023 Ford Ranger, Ford Mustang
2020-2021 Ford EcoSport, Ford Expedition, Lincoln Navigator
2020-2022 Ford Escape, Ford F-250 SD, Lincoln Corsair
2020-2023 Lincoln Aviator, Ford Transit
2020-2024 Ford Explorer
2021-2024 Ford Bronco Sport
2022-2024 Ford Maverick
