Ford Motor Company is recalling 43,438 vehicles, including certain 2024-2026 Lincoln Nautilus Hybrid models and 2025 Ford Explorer hybrid police vehicles. A software error may prevent these vehicles from emitting a mandatory pedestrian warning sound at certain speeds. To fix this, dealers will update the vehicle's audio and digital signal software, or the update can be completed automatically through an over-the-air (OTA) update at no cost to owners.
If a vehicle does not produce an external warning sound, pedestrians may be unaware of an approaching vehicle. This significantly increases the risk of the vehicle striking a pedestrian and causing injury.
