Overview

• The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ordered the recall of 132,914 Lincoln Aviators from model years 2020 through 2025.
• The recall addresses insufficient adhesive bonding of C-pillar trim and rear door window bars that may detach during operation.
• Ford estimates that about 3.2% of recalled SUVs (roughly 4,250 vehicles) have the defect and has logged 1,105 related warranty claims.
• Production of the faulty parts ceased on May 30 and owners will receive notification letters by July 28 with a follow-up notice once repairs are available.
• Dealers will repair or replace the affected trim and window bars free of charge, and Ford reports no accidents or injuries tied to the issue.
