You should have a copy of what was done regarding the update. Could you allow us to see just what it involved?
Important to have this info before offering any worthwhile comment, thanks.

Hello Hank and ty for responding.. the update was a recall, from /ford having to do with distortion of both front and rear cameras… I believe they have it labeled as update 513… I had gotten a “ding” in my Ford app and followed by snail mail recall letter from Ford saying the problem of both cameras,.. funny… I was having NO problem and as soon as that letter arrived in mail I happen to go out to go somewhere and boom both front and rear cameras viewage looked “cartoonish” and extreme distortion…. So I brought the car into the dealership and they indeed did an update which cured the camera distortion… the next day is when I found out I no longer had use of my front forward camera to aide in parking….. just by pushing the button…. In order for it to give u some picture, at least 5 times u have to place car into Park, Reverse, Drive , back again into Park and then try and push button (camera) sometimes it will work and give u just 2 seconds and I mean 2 seconds of vision to park car, and sometimes u get nothing… I went on FORD FORUM and asked in the general discussion part and found I am not the only one… there are litteraly a whole slew of 2021 edge st with same scenario … and it happened after this particular update… its a long thread, and some folks after reading this opted not to get update… hmmm.. well I contacted Ford serveral times, and now I feel like i getting the run around.. and yes I did bring to another dealership.. no one seems to have the answer as to why! Any help u can give me I would very much appreciate it…..thanks… rory
