What's recalled

Component: Visibility (power window devices and controls)

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2025 Lincoln Aviator vehicles. When closing the windows with the global closing feature, the side rear windows may exert excessive force when encountering an object, before they automatically reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 118, "Power-Operated Window Systems."

The risk

A closing window that does not reverse direction as expected can pinch a passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury.

The remedy and its status

Dealers will update the Body Control Module (BCM) software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 7, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25C33.

Status: NHTSA lists Oct 7, 2025 as the owner-notification date for this campaign.
