NHTSA Campaign 18V058000

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS

Issued by Ford Motor Company · Reported Jan 16, 2018 · 361 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2018 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator vehicles. The second row window control modules may intermittently stop the movement of the power window. If something, such as a finger, is pinched by the window glass, the stopped window control module may prevent the window from automatically reversing. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 118, "Power-Operated Window Systems."

Consequence

If the window does not automatically reverse when an obstruction is found, it can increase the risk of injury.

Remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the second row window electronic control modules, and replace them as necessary based on their build date codes, free of charge. The recall began on February 16, 2018. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 18C01.
