What the record says
- Product
- LINCOLN AVIATOR (2025) - Recall 25V543000
- Reason
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2025 Explorer and Aviator vehicles. When towing a trailer, the tail lights on the trailer may fail to illuminate due to an improperly manufactured body control module. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, " Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment." Trailer tail lights that do not illuminate as intended can reduce visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
