Had it happen when it was over 100 degrees outside and I was driving towards the sun. The same thing happened to my wife the other day except it was caused by ice on the camera . It will correct itself automatically.

Did you transmission acted wierd like changing gears hard when you left the accelerator pedal? I had to turn of the truck and turn it back on to get it act right.

Can you check for any DTC codes? That would tell you the cause of the message.

No effect on driving or shifting. I was traveling at 75MPh on the highway

This time of year the only issue I have is the parking sensors on the front bumpers, when snow, dirt and ice build up. My XLT does not have ACC, so the only thing used by pre-collision is the camera by the mirror. So keep the windshield clear and all is good.

The parking sensors sensors are annoying when the come on while you are slowing to a stop and go away as you speed up. At least you can turn them off until they get cleaned off.

I had all the bells&whistles on my last vehicle. I don't miss any of that tech. Its a much simpler more enjoyable driving experience without the parking sensors and blind spot sensors.

The Ranger is my first vehicle that had all of this tech. Now that I've had it I like (most) of it and it'll be hard to not have it again in another vehicle. Sure some of it is annoying like when the red warning goes off on the dash when someone's taking a right turn. Overall I like it and the way people are (walking right behind you when you're backing up) it's nice to have an extra safety net in place with all the sensors and cameras.

I didn't realize you could turn them off. Do they stay off or reset each time you use the truck?

No you cannot turn them off - but you can turn off the (Display and Warning) only they are still operating, they do self Deenergize - when you get up to speed if I recall 5- MPH - If you deselect the switch it’s the same as the ASS - only good for current ignition cycle - I have tested and verified this information to be correct ,

They (parking sensors) reset every time you start your truck.

Oh my, I remember those days when my F150 would look like that! I'm so glad I don't have to deal with that anymore. lol

That's going to need a lot of Graphene come spring time.
