Ford has a series of videos on YouTube that explain and demonstrate all the exterior sensor functions better (and quicker) than the manual.

If you're getting a message about a sensor being blocked and you don't have snow or mud buildup on your truck, you probably need to have the dealer check it out under warranty.
I was able to stop the error message by cleaning the snow off of ALL 4 rear bumper sensors. I did not realize that there were 4 of them. Now I do

I've had to clear ice from behind the bumper on the outside-driver side sensor. But I never got an error message. It was just stuck on (solid tone/beep) and showed red when I was in reverse. It's probably a good time to get some mudflaps.

My bad. Sorry it wasn't an error message but yes the same as you. Solid tone and red. BTW - I do have mud flaps and still doesn't help.
