Gotta say I was problem free and very happy with my car and not so happy with my local dealership until now. It's not the worst issue, I've seen first year release of cars have far worse problems so I'm counting my blessings!
Cant tell if thats a joke I'm literally using the 12v cigartte lighter input thats on the dash to power the dash cam. I haven't touch any of the electronics especially ones that would cause the AAC system to fail.
Ok you are using the dash cigarette style PowerPoint and not the optional actual heavier cigarette lighter socket that came with an ashtray for $70.Cant tell if thats a joke I'm literally using the 12v cigartte lighter input thats on the dash to power the dash cam.

I was cursing down the high way on a nice summer day, was on the road for about 30 minutes when I get a warning on the dash "Front Camera Fault. Service Required"
Now adaptive cruise and front collision warnings don't work and the worst part is the warning pop up every 5-10 minutes when I am leisurely driving. I've heard the horror stories about issues and I still am waiting to get parts for the recalls I need to get done for the car but now this!
Has anyone run into this before?
I have seen someone on the forum with warnings saying there are obstructions to the camera or sensor but my message is different, it clearly says camera fault.
Also check the upper center windshield the camera looks through for bird droppings or bug splatter. Did you put any tint across the top 3-5" of windshield?I was cursing down the high way on a nice summer day, was on the road for about 30 minutes when I get a warning on the dash "Front Camera Fault.

Adding to the fuses and potential blocking of the camera, I've had this issue happen a few times as well under very specific, easily repeatable conditions:I was cursing down the high way on a nice summer day, was on the road for about 30 minutes when I get a warning on the dash "Front Camera Fault.

I looked in the manual and it states fuse 34 (under hood) is for the camera system. I'm not sure how much clearer the directions could be.no s*
But you just never know until you know which fuse - directions in manual unclear. Not going to touch it for now and see if ford will deal with it but im not hopeful. Not sure how dealerships are in your area but mine are terrible.
Not a joke, they are referring to the optional package that changes the adapter to a higher power one that enables using a cigarette lighter. Shouldn't matter though because the voltage regulator should only supply the power you need, no more. But the pic shows you have the standard adapter.

I have only ceramic coated my sports cars I just went out last night to get it gassed up and it still has the same issue at night =[And yet another thought....
Did you put a ceramic coating on your car and if so did it get on glass in front of camera and too much light is being reflected away from camera? Or is the hood so shiny that it's blinding the camera?
Was this ever resolved. I have the same message Cleaned camera etc Plus my auto brights don't workI was cursing down the high way on a nice summer day, was on the road for about 30 minutes when I get a warning on the dash "Front Camera Fault. Service Required"

I only get the front camera message and I can clear it but the auto brights wont work? I've tried everything but reluctant to take it to the dealer because they seem to be guessing as much as me
