See attached document for complaint. I am writing regarding the above-referenced recall for my 2015 Ford Escape. In October 2025, I received notice of the recall related to my vehicle. However, prior to receiving this notice, in September 2025, I opted to have my local Ford Dealership replace the camera because I felt very unsafe without the feature after becoming accustomed to it. At the time of service, the dealership informed me that there were no recalls posted for my vehicle, so I paid a total of $531.39 out of pocket for the replacement. I would like to inquire if it is possible to receive a refund for some or all of the charges I paid for the replacement. The dealership advised me that they were unable to process this request and that I needed to contact you directly. I have attached a copy of my invoice for your review. Thank you in advance for your consideration of my request. Contact
