What this recall covers
- The defect
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Lincoln Nautilus vehicles that were repaired incorrectly under recall 24V953.

- The risk
- A closing window may exert excessive force by pinching a driver or passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury.
