Ford issues a recall affecting 79,579 vehicles, including certain Ford Explorer models and Lincoln Aviator models, because a driver’s seat can unexpectedly recline. The problem involves a reclining function that can activate on its own, changing the seat’s position without driver input. As described in the recall coverage, Ford identifies the issue as a safety concern related to seat operation and is taking action to address it for the affected vehicles. One outlet reports the recall size and describes the mechanism as the seat reclining function turning on unexpectedly. Another outlet places the recall in broader context, noting that Ford has issued a high volume of recalls during the year, but the specific event it highlights is the same seat-related issue affecting the Explorer and Aviator vehicles. The reporting across outlets centers on the same core facts: the vehicles are being recalled due to an unintended driver-seat recline.
