1 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 10/26/2007

I am concerned with the safety of my Lincoln. When the coils go bad the car starts missing. I was stopped being a school bus when my rpm's surged to 6500 and my car jolted forward. After the bus started up, I gave the car little gas to go, and it stalled. It stalled on the interstate the evening before. The mechanic told me that 3 coils were out. I have had the same situation 3 or 4 other times. My 2000 Lincoln Ls has had several coils replaced. Mechanic finally determined that the valve cover gasket was bad. After replacing the gaskets, 3 coils went out within several days. I think that from my research, the valve cover gaskets are defective and should be recalled and coils replaced or reimbursement made for coils already replaced. I feel that this is a safety issue when the car surges and stalls on the highway.
