Ford has faced a significant penalty from the NHTSA, amounting up to $165 million for delayed recalls of vehicles with faulty rearview cameras, impacting over 600,000 vehicles.
The fine includes a $65 million upfront payment, a $55 million deferred payment, and $45 million earmarked for developing safety data infrastructure and testing lab facilities.
Ford's spokesperson expressed appreciation for the resolution and highlighted ongoing improvements in safety and compliance, including advanced data analytics and a new testing facility.
The NHTSA's agreement also mandates Ford to review recalls from the past three years and engage an independent third party for compliance oversight.
