Kehoe Law Firm, P.C. is notifying consumers that an increased risk of fire due to a short circuit of the LED logo lights on certain Lincoln Navigator exterior side mirror assemblies has caused the Ford Motor Company (“Ford”) to initiate a recall of 35,328 vehicles, including certain 2015-2017 Lincoln Navigators.
Affected Lincoln Navigator Vehicles
The recall impacts the following vehicles:
- 2015-2017 Lincoln Navigators
Short Circuit of Lincoln Navigator Exterior Side Mirror Assemblies Increases Risk of Fire
The light-emitting diode (LED) logo lamps within the driver side and passenger side exterior mirror assemblies may short circuit without tripping the short detection threshold. An electrical short in the exterior mirror increases the risk of fire.
Recall Remedy
Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to cut and disconnect the power wire to the LED logo lamp. There will be no charge for this service.
Ford provided the general reimbursement plan for the cost of remedies paid for by vehicle owners prior to notification of a safety recall in May 2023.
Owners who have paid to have these repairs completed at their own expense may be eligible for reimbursement, in accordance with the recall reimbursement plan on file with NHTSA.
