What's wrong, in plain English
Some 2025 Lincoln Aviator vehicles have rear side windows that may not work correctly with the automatic closing feature. When one of these windows is closing and encounters an object in its path, it may exert too much force before automatically reversing direction. Because of this, the vehicles do not meet a federal safety requirement for how power windows are supposed to behave when they meet resistance while closing.
What you should do
