Ford Motor Company is recalling approximately 101,001 vehicles, including 2020-2023 Lincoln Aviator and 2020-2022 Lincoln Corsair models equipped with Revel Audio Systems. The seat belt warning system in these vehicles may only sound for less than 4 seconds when the driver is unbelted, which is an insufficient amount of time to meet federal safety standards. This defect means the vehicle fails to properly alert occupants that they are not secured, increasing the danger during a collision. Ford dealers will provide a software update for the audio control module to fix the issue at no cost to owners.
The audible warning chime may stop too quickly, failing to properly alert the driver that their seat belt is unbuckled. This increases the risk of serious injury during a crash if the occupant remains unbelted.
