Vehicles Affected: Approximately 21,500 model-year 2015 Lincoln MKZ sedans built Feb. 17, 2014, to March 19, 2015, at the Hermosillo Assembly Plant
The Problem: The park lamps are brighter than regulations allow and may adversely affect the vision of oncoming drivers, increasing the risk of an accident. Ford is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition, the automaker said in a statement.
The Fix: Dealers will update the body control module software, which controls the intensity of the park lamps, for free.
What Owners Should Do: Ford has not yet announced an owner notification schedule. Owners can call Ford at 866-436-7332 or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration at 888-327-4236 for more information.

Hellbent on finding a journalism job after earning an English degree from DePaul University, I stumbled into the automotive industry in 2003 — much to the delight of my Corvette-obsessed dad. After working as an editor at Consumer Guide Automotive for several years, I joined Cars.com in 2011 and am currently an expert reviewer, certified car-seat technician and mom of three. I wear a lot of hats — many of them while driving a minivan. My first car was a 1994 Mercury Tracer, and I currently drive a 2012 Mazda5.
