The short version

Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the front warning light/devices. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

When the driver's seat belt is not buckled and the vehicle is started, the seat belt warning system may activate the audible warning chime for an insufficient amount of time of less than 4 seconds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

WHY IT MATTERS

An audible warning chime that does not properly alert of an unbelted seat belt can increase the risk of injury during a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Take it to a dealer — they will update the audio control module software, free of charge.
