Plain-English summary
Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2024 Lincoln Nautilus vehicles due to a defect in the multimedia module software. The panoramic and center displays may reboot unexpectedly, resulting in a blank screen.
When this occurs, critical safety information is lost, including the speedometer display, warning light indicators, and the rearview camera display. Loss of the speedometer prevents the driver from knowing the vehicle's speed. Loss of warning lights means drivers cannot see alerts for low fuel, check engine conditions, or other critical warnings. Loss of the rearview camera display reduces visibility of what is behind the vehicle when backing up. Collectively, these losses increase the risk of a crash.
The recall affects an estimated 30,679 2024 Nautilus vehicles. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 24, 2025. Consumers should contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 for repairs. The remedy is a free software update to be provided either by a Ford dealer or through an over-the-air update.
