For some vehicles within the scope of this recall, due to design reasons, if the seat belt fixing cable installed outside the front seat is in a specific position, the driver and the front passenger may cause the seat belt fixing cable to bend repeatedly and exceed the yield strength of the cable, resulting in the cable stretching, and long-term fatigue and wear may lead to the cable breaking. When a vehicle collides, it may affect the seat belt restraint function, and in extreme cases, the seat belt restraint function may fail, which increases the risk of personal injury in the accident and has potential safety hazards.

Volvo Car Sales (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Haoqing Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will replace the improved front seat outer seat belt fasteners for vehicles within the recall range free of charge to eliminate safety hazards.

In addition, official website, the State Administration of Market Supervision, showed that before the vehicle is recalled for maintenance, it is suggested that the driver and the front passenger should ensure that the seat belt fixing piece is vertical when entering the vehicle, which is consistent with the direction of the seat back, so that the seat belt fixing piece will not bend to the seat cushion when the driver and the front passenger sit in the seat, and the seat belt fixing piece can be prevented from being damaged.

Ford recalls some imported Lincoln cars;

Seat airbag may not work properly.

Ford Motor (China) Co., Ltd. filed a recall plan with the State Administration of Market Supervision according to the requirements of the Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recall and the Measures for the Implementation of the Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recall.

It is decided to recall some imported Lincoln MKX cars from May 28, 2015 to July 30, 2018 from August 21, 2020, totaling 10,649 vehicles; And some imported Lincoln Navigator cars produced from September 27, 2018 to September 30, 2019 in 2019-2020, totaling 4,010.

For some vehicles within the scope of this recall, due to the narrow gap between the front seat harness and the seat pan frame, when the seat pan angle adjustment function is used, the edge of the seat pan frame may interfere with the seat harness, which may lead to the wear of the seat harness in extreme cases, which may cause the front seat airbag system to fail to work normally and pose a safety hazard.

Ford Motor (China) Co., Ltd. will entrust Lincoln authorized dealers to install flocking tape on the exposed edge of the front seat basin frame for vehicles within the recall scope free of charge, and at the same time, check the seat harness and repair or replace it as necessary to eliminate potential safety hazards.
