Official summary

Some 2020 Aviator vehicles equipped with a 3.0L hybrid engine and built on or before 17-Jul-2020 may exhibit inoperative preferred charge time scheduling using the touchscreen and/or Lincoln Way phone application. This may be due to the software in the powertrain control module (PCM). To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to reprogram the PCM.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
