Lincoln incorrect seat back trim cover was installed on the affected vehicles, blocking the child seat tether anchors in the second row center seating position.
The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the tether connector/clip. Here is what owners need to know.
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."
An improperly anchored child seat can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the seat back trim cover and tether cover bezel on the second row, free of charge.
