Key Points:
- Ford is recalling nearly 420,000 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator vehicles from model years 2018 to 2022 due to a seat belt issue that may cause injury in a crash.
- The problem involves seat belts that may lock inadvertently, preventing proper retraction or extension, which can increase injury risk during an accident.
- This recall expands on two previous NHTSA recalls, with Ford reporting two warranty claims, two field reports, and one injury related to the issue.
- Vehicle owners will be notified by mail and can have their front seat belt retractors inspected and replaced for free at Ford or Lincoln dealerships.
- For more information, owners can contact Ford customer service or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
