NHTSA

16V343

SUMMARY:

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2016 Lincoln MKX vehicles manufactured September 24, 2015.

An incorrect seat back trim cover was installed on the affected vehicles, blocking the child seat tether anchors in the second row center seating position.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, “Child restraint anchorage systems.”

 

CONSEQUENCE:

An improperly anchored child seat can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

 

REMEDY:

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the seat back trim cover and tether cover bezel on the second row, free of charge.

The recall is expected to begin on June 13, 2016.

Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

Ford’s number for this recall is 16C09.

 

NOTES:

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

REASON FOR THIS COMPLIANCE RECALL

All of the affected vehicles were built with an incorrect left rear seat backrest cover, which conceals the child tether anchorage for the center seating position.  This does not conform to the requirements specified by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 225 regarding child tether anchorage for the second row center seating position or child tether anchorage accessibility.
