What owners report
The second-row power captain's chairs in my 2026 Lincoln Navigator Black Label move forward and backward while a person is sitting in them, and do not stop when they press against an occupant. The chairs do stop when they contact an object such as a box on the floor, but they do not stop when a person is seated, so there appears to be no occupant or weight sensor that stops seat travel. The seats can be moved by a button in the rear that a younger child seated nearby can easily reach, and by front-seat controls located near the seat massage control, where they can be pressed accidentally. On several occasions this has pushed and squeezed my children while they were seated in the second row.
