Seat belts in rear are all locking up and will not allow for passengers in back to be buckled properly.

The right and left seats belts in the rear of car will no longer retract. I got them unstuck a couple times but it happens again and again. I am afraid because my kids sit back there.

While driving on the highway the car started to accelerate on it,s own and when I applied the brakes they wouldn't work. I had to get off the next exit because I didn't want anyone to get in front of me because it went all the way up to 90 mph. Once I got off it still was accelerating so I drove up on the sidewalk to keep from hitting traffic at the light and got into the grass and it still was going fast and the brakes still not working I prayed and put it into neutral or I would have went right back into the traffic. Once I put it in neutral it stopped and then I put it in park and turned it off. I then turned it back on and it was idling so high and loud I turned it back off and called a tow truck. Once they arrived he stated that the linkage to the accelerator was stuck and that's is why the brakes weren't responding. He then called the dealership who stated he wasn't sure if the could look at the car or if he did when he would be able to work on it. Since then it has been sitting and I found out about all these other recalls and complaints for the very other things we been having problems with on this car. The tower also stated that he thought there was a recall for this acceleration if so I need to know this because this car needs to be fixed on the other recalls. This is the first time it did the acceleration but the foggy winshield,the seatbelts locking up on using the front seats, the suspension and brakes have been like this for a while and we were never notified about these recall so we could get them corrected. Others and myself could have been seriously hurt on that highway if I didn't stay calm through out the whole ordeal. I would like some response to what I need to do next and if this is a recall like the others can I take to the dealership and have it corrected. Right now it can be driven at all.

The center seat belt is locked against the seat and cannot be utilized. The climate control sticks and cannot be set to different temperatures. The transmission surges in, it seems in second and third gear. I saw these problems on the web site as recalls for the 2000 to 2001 year models of this auto. Well the one I have is 2002 but was manufactured in 2001.

We are owners of a 2001 Lincoln Continental. My two young boys ages 2 and 4 were in their car seats on both sides of the rear seat, leaving the middle seat belt unused. My four year old had called me for help while I was driving over a bridge. I saw he was noosed around his neck by the middle belt and pinned against the rear of the seat. The car has an automated locking position for safety . This turns out to be a danger. The belt would not release leaving me to have to run for help on the highway. I found a man who could help cut the belt and release my son. He was left with a full collar belt burn on his neck. Be aware of this automated locking position. It almost cost my son his life.
