2022 Lincoln Aviator PHEV: check engine light

Filed Sep 29, 2026 · Brakes · CO

Vehicle went into limp home mode at highway speeds, reporting stored OBD-II codes including: U0100, U0415:00:08, U0415:00:28, B1088, U0418, U0253, U3000:42:69, P061A The check engine light illuminated. The dashboard spewed numerous systems disabled message. OTA messages reported: "The hill start assist system has detected a failure" "The Collision Warning system has detected either a system fault or an obstructed radar sensor." "Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power September 15, 2026 at 8:48 AM The Engine system has detected a fault." Ford's user manual indicates that the vehicle should be safely driven below 60MPH to the nearest service center and should not be driven until repaired. The vehicle exited limp home mode after pulling over to the side of the road and turning off engine and accessory power. Two different Ford dealers have indicated they cannot repair the vehicle unless they can reproduce the error. "Limp Home" is clearly recorded in Ford telematics messages available to both Ford and the dealerships. There is enough information recorded and captured in stored codes for Ford to diagnose and repair a problem with communications between either ABS and the ECM/PCM or between regenerative braking electronics and ABS. This PHEV is unusable until Ford diagnoses and repairs the communications path. The vehicle is covered under Ford warranties. The U3000 DTC has a known SSM related to APIM and camera failures. Although the failure occurred on Sunday, 13 September 2026 at approximately 10PM MDT, the dashboard messages were not reported or logged by Ford's telematics servers until Tuesday, 15 September 2026.

This vehicle suffers from the low-pressure fuel pump defect tracked under the federal safety agency Campaign Number 25V455000 (Ford Recall 25S75). Since 2024, the vehicle has experienced a recurring Check Engine Light accompanied by engine hesitation and fuel delivery failures. Because the manufacturer has failed to provide a final recall remedy, the authorized Lincoln dealership repeatedly refused to fix the underlying issue. Instead, they continually cleared the error codes and instructed me to keep driving the vehicle. Operating the vehicle with this active safety defect caused severe fuel-management failures and misfires, forcing raw fuel into the exhaust system and completely melting the catalytic converter. The manufacturer is now refusing to cover the catalytic converter under the Federal Emissions Warranty, citing that the vehicle is slightly over 80,000 miles—even though the failure was explicitly documented by the dealer well before that threshold. The lack of a timely recall remedy has directly resulted in secondary vehicle damage, creating an unsafe operating condition and compromised emissions controls.

I have had multiple CHECK ENGINE LIGHT issues where the description is "MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP - REGULATORY" and the detailed description is a problem with THE EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM (EVAP). My cell phone app says fuel vapors are being detected. Three separate times, this check engine light has come on. Three separate times I've brought the vehicle to the dealership. My car only has about 2577 miles on it. It came back from the dealer on Monday -- and today, Tuesday, the check engine light is back on for the 4th time.

CONSTITUENT WRITES REGARDING VEHICLE STALLING ON THEIR 2022 LINCOLN AVIATOR. This is brand new vehicle with 3,000+ miles on it. The first day owned it, around 12-21, the vehicle would not go into drive. A warning message appeared that said 'high-voltage battery warning", "The hybrid powertrain system has detected a fault". It would also flash "Full Accessory Power Active". After some internet searches I found a thread in ford that said "let the car sit for 20mins and it will restart". https://www.mustangecoboost.net/threads/i-think-i-figure-out-how-to-fix-the-full-accessory-power-active.22706/#:~:text=It%20means%20you%20have%20full,press%20the%20start%20button%20again. I did that and vehicle restarted. I made an appt with my local Lincoln dealer, Bill Collins Lincoln, and they inspected the car on 1-18 thru 1-21. They did not find anything wrong with it but did find the codes. They stated they thought the battery was dead. This was impossible due to the fact I drove the car 500 miles from Alabama to KY on 12-21. Today, 2-2-22, my wife was driving home from work and the car shut off on the interstate. When I say shut off, I mean it died at 65mph. She tried to press the accelerator and the car just continued to de-accelerate. The check engine light popped up and said "Stop Safely Now". Luckily, my wife was able pull off the interstate without causing an accident. Once stopped, she turned the vehicle off and tried to restarted it. It popped the same message about "full accessory power" and the car wouldn't start. She tried the push button start to no avail, tried the remote start to no avail. Finally she used her "phone as a key" and it started. She was able to drive home. I have called Lincoln and made them aware of the issues. They have asked for me to bring the car in immediately. I informed them I would be filing a complaint here as well. This car is a $85,000 death trap. Lincoln needs to take this very seriously and an investigation needs to open to find out why this vehicle is behaving like this. It is n
