Lincoln Aviator rear window trim can fall off
medium How serious is it? About this label
Detached trim may cause a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash. The notice does not tell owners to stop driving.
What's wrong, in plain English
The glue holding some trim pieces on the outside of the Aviator may not be strong enough. The strips around the rear door windows and the covers on the pillars behind the rear doors can come unstuck and fall off while you are driving. A piece flying off on the road can hit or surprise other drivers behind you. Dealers will repair or replace those trim pieces at no cost.
