Ford has issued a recall notice for certain 2009 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs, in order to correct a brake lamp defect that could lead to an accident.
In a defect notice filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Ford explains that, in affected vehicles, “The brake stop lamp switch may be improperly adjusted. This may result in a delay in brake stop lamp illumination when the brake pedal is depressed.” If a driver presses lightly on the brakes to stop gradually, “the brake stop lamps may not illuminate.”
Dealers will adjust the switch free of charge in an attempt to correct the problem. Owners should receive a notice in the mail beginning July 6, but those who wish to make their own repair arrangements may contact Ford at 1-866-436-7332, or www.ownerconnection.com.
