2019 LINCOLN NAUTILUS — Complaint #1862387
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about SEAT BELTS:REAR/OTHER:RETRACTOR filed December 30, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1862387 (ODI reference 11499545) concerns a 2019 LINCOLN NAUTILUS and was filed on December 30, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 22, 2022. The vehicle had 36,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Ohio based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as seat belts:rear/other:retractor, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same LINCOLN NAUTILUS cohort independently describe similar seat belts:rear/other:retractor failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2019 LINCOLN NAUTILUS shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
