Anyone else have this happen? Got in the car today, put it in reverse and noticed the backup camera point down towards the ground, enough to see the rear GT emblem on the trunk. Was not this way before today.

I already checked the zoom and that is not it. I'm sure I'll prolly have to take it in to the dealership, but just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and what could cause it? Have not hit hard bumps or shut the trunk hard.

have you looked at the actual camera to see if it has shifted? This happened in my wife's Edge and I was able to reposition it back to where it should be - though the camera mount on the Edge is a little different, not as integrated as it is on the mustang.

have you taken a look at your camera and made sure it wasn't loose or your decklid wasn't loose?

I briefly looked at it and it didn't look off but I have no basis for comparison as I never closely looked at it before. I'll check the deck lid tomorrow.

Mine is not shifted and it shows parts of the GT lettering and the rear bumper. It's designed this way so you could get a good perspective of what are you looking at.

Pretty sure mine has shifted as well. Doesn't bug me yet but we'll see what happens.

Since it wasn't like this until today I don't believe that is true.

The camera sits into a pocket in the trim panel and has a bracket that captures it in place that has two screws. Maybe a screw came out or the bracket is broken (it's made of plastic).

I just checked mine. I do actually see the bottom half of the GT. I never paid enough attention to notice this before - maybe same deal with you?

Are you sure? Yesterday I would have said the same thing until I specifically checked and looked for the GT.

Mine broke. Had to have deck lid panel replaced.

I've got a 50 Years car, so the badge is almost the same. Mine looks exactly like yours.
