Ford Motor Company is recalling 23,111 Lincoln Aviator vehicles from the 2025 model year. The side rear windows on these vehicles may exert too much force when encountering an object while closing automatically using the global closing feature. This failure to reverse direction as expected can pinch a passenger, increasing the risk of physical injury. Dealers will update the Body Control Module (BCM) software free of charge to resolve the issue.
The window system fails to meet federal safety standards for power-operated windows because it does not retract quickly enough when obstructed. This creates a hazard where a passenger's hand or arm could be pinched or crushed by the closing window before it reverses.
