I did not see it switch to the camera before impact, but the guy came in pretty quick. I was in an exit lane and he cut into traffic right behind me and couldn't stop in time. I also don't think the Mach-E is recording video so it could be used later. On the Data Privacy page in the manual, it says data is collected that could be used but it doesn't mention video.

(Note: I did have a GoPro running and facing forward. It was in a 10x timelapse mode. It did actually capture the license plate of the guy that did the hit-and-run, but it was more valuable at the time to see it with my own eyes and have my wife call it in to 911. In fact, the cops didn't even want to see our footage. To them, it was clear exactly what happened.)
Noooooo……..
Hope you & Liv are ok. Am gutted for you. How much damage is there? Am thankful that you got the details and police are involved. Hope for a positive outcome from all this.

We're OK. We were a little sore Sunday, but no big deal. To a bystander, it probably doesn't look that bad. To me, it feels devastating. Trying to get the insurance estimate now so the Ford dealer can schedule me for repairs.

On the bright side, my metal plates didn't get damaged? Nope, I can't even pretend. It just sucks.

Don't forget you can use your Ford Pass Reward Points. I'm not sure how many of them you get with the MACHE purchase, but I got 75,000 with my F150 Platinum. I've used them for oil changes and paid for the Mach-E Floor liners with them as well.
Yes great call out. The guy in the parts dept at my dealer suggested it before I got my ask in. Wonder what the FordPass points will be for the Mach-E???

Did anyone notice this fine print on the Echomaster Website for those dash cams Ford is offering for the Mach-E?

That appears to be this camera. If you choose to use the OBD cable, the ICE version and EV version are different. Ford seems to only offer the non EV OBD cable. They also only supply an 8GB memory card. The below is a better deal (blackboxmycar) for the same dash cam. I would think the Ford version would work if it was hardwired to the fuse box instead of the OBD.

What I ordered is on the ford accessories web site as a Mach-E accessory. I will advise if I hit a wall.

Definitely keep us posted - Would love to see how your dealer installs and which method they use to get power. Did you get the front/rear camera bundle or just the front?

Wait really? The center display can show camera footage? I’d like to see this in action during a controlled event not an actual crash. This was in no YouTube videos or anywhere online
The center (main) display cameras can be brought up at any time from the settings menu and the camera views are the same as the ones that activate when parking.
