The 2024 CX-90, including the PHEV, may fail to show the rear camera image when shifted into Reverse because of a software defect. This reduces rear visibility and increases the risk of backing into a person or object. The free remedy is a dealer software update under NHTSA recall 23V742; confirm the campaign has been completed before relying on the system.
Certain 2024-2025 CX-90 models with the 8-speed automatic transmission can momentarily shift into neutral while driving because of a transmission-control module software issue. This causes a sudden loss of drive, which is dangerous when entering traffic or crossing intersections. The dealer remedy is a transmission control module reprogramming; if the VIN is included in the NHTSA campaign the repair is free, and before purchase check NHTSA recall status and test stop-and-go driving.
