## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2018\-2020 Expedition and Lincoln Navigator vehicles.  The seat belt pretensioner in the driver and/or front passenger seat may inadvertently deploy and lock the seat belt, which will not allow the belt to retract or extend.


## What can happen

Seat belts that do not retract or extend may fail to restrain an occupant as intended, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will replace the seat belt retractors, as necessary.  Additionally, dealers will install an HVAC drain tube elbow if it is missing.  Repairs will be performed free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on July 8, 2024.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 24S06.


## 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.nhtsa.gov.
