Ford Motor Company is recalling 8 Lincoln Aviator vehicles from the 2020 and 2021 model years equipped with 3.0L plug-in hybrid (PHEV) engines. These specific vehicles were previously repaired incorrectly under a prior recall. A defect in the high voltage battery cells may cause an internal short circuit, leading to battery failure. To fix this issue, dealers will update the Battery Energy Control Module software at no cost to the owner.
A battery failure can cause the vehicle to lose drive power while in motion, which increases the chance of a crash. The short circuit also creates a risk of the vehicle catching fire.
Free software update for the Battery Energy Control Module.
Limited to vehicles repaired incorrectly under recall 23V626.
