Camera Views...Front Camera...Can't get it to work

The information below reads that in P, N, D the front cameras are displayed. I can't get mine to come on. Anyone else having an issue, not being able to get the front camera to work? If, not, what am i doing wrong? When I put it in R, I get 360, and all rear cameras.

Camera Views
E205884
The camera button is located on the instrument panel and allows you to toggle through different camera views.
When in park (P), neutral (N) or drive (D), only images from the front cameras are displayed. Press the camera button to display the front camera image on the display screen.

The following camera views can be accessed in park (P), neutral (N) or drive (D) when you press the camera button:
• Front 360 + Normal: Contains the
normal front camera view next to a
360 degree camera view.
• Front Normal View: Provides an
image of what is directly in front of your
vehicle.
• Front Split View: Provides an
extended view of what is in front of
your vehicle by using the front and side
cameras.

Tell me what happens if you put it into reverse, then put directly into drive. While in drive the camera should still be pulled up(the reverse one) hit the camera button above the display (the physical button) this should bring up
the front camera. (Just testing to see if it works at all)

Mine works fine, I press the camera button on the center console when pulling forward to park and it defaults to the front camera. I do think Ford could have done a better job on that camera, it really doesn't show the corners of the bumper just the center 80%.

There is a wide angle button on the screen with the front camera, shows the full width of the bumper for me, i use it when pulling out of my paring location at home to see if anyone is coming down the ally.

When I put it in reverse I get the 360, the rear camera view and can change cameras and + and -. When I put it in drive I get Navigation and No camera.
Is there something I need to change?

In drive you have to push the camera button to bring up the front/360 cameras.
