What happened

Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2018 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator vehicles because the second row window control modules may intermittently stop the power windows from moving. If an obstruction like a finger becomes pinched by the window glass, the faulty control module may prevent the window from automatically reversing, which increases the risk of injury and violates federal safety standards for power window systems.

Ford will notify owners of affected vehicles, and dealers will inspect and replace the second row window electronic control modules as necessary based on their build date codes at no charge. The recall began on February 16, 2018. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 or reference recall number 18C01.
