- The defect
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Lincoln Navigator vehicles. The LED logo lights on the exterior mirrors may short circuit.
- What it can cause
- An electrical short circuit in the exterior mirror increases the risk of fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will disconnect the LED light wires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 27, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S08.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 35,328 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 87% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2015 to 2017, so the oldest vehicles on it were 10 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Lincoln vehicles have been recalled over the visibility 10 times before this, most recently in December 2024 as 24V953000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 76 complaints with NHTSA, 47 of them before this campaign was filed. 14 of those name the visibility, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in March 2016, 8 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V572000 (back over prevention), 25V270000 (back over prevention), 25V236000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 22V648000 (visibility).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Ford Motor Company with NHTSA on February 14, 2025 as campaign 25V091000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
