Power Window Problems of Lincoln LS

My 2002 Lincoln Ls v8 has broken down in numerous ways. All ignition coils have had to be replaced, two window motors, airbag connector clip, my tie rod ends are bad, my car has actually shut off completely while driving up the 15 north three times while my son was in the car with me and now my transmission has completely stopped working. When it came to fixing the airbag connector problem Lincoln told me it was fixed and I went to pick up my car and it was still doing the same thing the three beeps so they fixed it for free and then told me my instrument panel on one side was burned out but the lights seems to work on it when I turn them on. They wanted to charge me 800 dollars for that but I refused. The ignition coil replacement was roughly 1000 dollars and I am waiting on my estimate for my transmission. Both window motors were 200 dollars a piece. I have had numerous taillights replaced and actually had a door lock jam closed on me. I truly feel that this car is a safety hazard for me and my son if it turns completely off at 65 miles an hour on a freeway with my son in the car.

Faulty window regulators in a 2002 Lincoln Ls - while driving the drivers window and right rear window glass suddenly slammed down inside the doors with no warning within several days of each other. My car has 46,000 miles. This should not be happening and could be a serious safety issue. The problem is wide spread in the Lincoln - do a google search for faulty window regulators in a Lincoln Ls - you will not believe how common a problem this is. There is a technical service bulletin for this problem - Ford knows it. I had both windows repaired at a cost of 436. 36 - Ford agreed to pay 210. 00 of the bill . . . . . . . . This should be a recall - windows are not suddenly supposed to disappear.

Replaced the window regulator on my Lincoln Ls2002 v8 3 times this year.

Power window regulators have gone out twice in same car. Driver front and passenger rear on same day.

Power window switch, driver side, and multi-function switch on steering column malfunctioning. Both have been repaired before but are again not responding.

Driving my 2005 Lincoln Ls down the street tonight all four windows were down. I pressed the button to let up the windows just before entering the freeway. Driver window came off of the track and back of the window continued to go up while the front of the window dropped down and looked as if it were going to fall out onto the freeway I got off at the next exit. Call the 1-800 number for Lincoln 24- roadside assistance. Phone rep put tony wang on the line this problem was above her expertise he said it was the weekend and he could not help me until Monday. Unless I just wanted the car towed to the nearest dealer to sit until Monday. No rental car assistance is available on the weekend. I asked for his supervisor, donald bryant was not working tonight I asked tony to have donald call me in the next ten minutes so I can figure out what to do next. That was 10pm 8/18 it is now 11:30 pm no call. The other complaint is I bought this car straight out of lease 40k miles now has 47k vibrations started at 70mph around 43k after Lincoln fixed a defective master cylinder. Lincoln has attempted to fix the vibrations 3 different times and kept the car approx 7days. Car was certified up to 75k. I am suprised parent company Ford runs their business this way. This is my first and will be my last Lincoln.

First it started out in July 2007,ac wasn't blowing like it should be replaced control heads. Then my trac control light came on and park brake light was on checked and advised replaced speed sensor. Then check engine light came on found upstream bank 2 02 sensor reading out of spec. Replaced 02 sensor and clear codes. That cost me$1285. 51. Which I replaced sensor,spark plugs,coil then in Jan 2008 my transmission shift hard into reverse checked and advised found faults in solenoid,valve body,trans filter,repaired clear codes,ok. Replaced drive belt and pulley. That bill was 1318. 72. Well then in 08/2008 same thing transmission shifts rough concern cylinder misfire. Check engine light back on. Thank god had a recall from Ford on that. Found contamination in both sides replaced affected coils,plugs,and cover which they only replaced 4 of the 8 coils. That would have been 593. 18. Then on 08/2008 coolant leak just 3 days after getting it out of the shop had to replace leaking thermostat connector. Haven't had any problems running hot until they worked on it 08/11/2008. The power window was inoperative. The dealer replaced the regulator/motor. Updated 10/22/08.

Power window system for 2000 Lincoln Ls is defective. On or about August 2006, the power window system of the right passenger side became inoperable. Shortly thereafter, in November of 2006, the power window system of the left passenger side also became inoperable. Subsequently, I've learned that there are numerous complaints for this very same issue.

I replaced the right rear window regulator in September 2004. Today the left rear window regular went out. I transport my kids in this car and the window does not work. I just got the vehicle out of the shop two weeks ago. I can not afford to continue to repair this faulty vehicle. I finally made the decision to purchase an american made vehicle. Can you please issue a recall on the window regulators before my children or others get injured. I will be taking the vehicle to the dealer to pay approximately $400. 00. Thank you for your time in dealing with this matter.

In August of 2005, the warranty on my car was going to expire. I took the Lincoln Ls to the dealership to have them check the car over. I told them that 2 of my windows were making strange noises. When I would lower or roll up the windows it made a clicking sound and the windows kind of slammed shut. The very next week, my drivers side window fell down into the door and it wouldn't work! it made this horrible grating sound like the window had broken inside the door. I took the car to the dealership, where is cost me almost 400 dollars to get the window repaired and the service manager told me there had been many problems with the windows on the Lincoln Ls's. I now have two more windows making that same clicking noise and slamming shut when I use the window, so basically, I am unable to use the windows in my car because I can't fork out 800 dollars to get the windows fixed. The front side passenger window has started falling down 1/2 to inch even when no one is using the window. This is a huge problem and a safety issue. If I were in a wreck, I have no assurance that the windows would work properly if I were trapped in my car. Its a safety issue in rainy weather, it is difficult to concentrate on driving when the window comes down and rain is pouring into the car. I have leather seats and rain would mess up my seats. It is also a safety issue during the summer and hot weather- suffocation could occur if I were trapped in the car! I have read literally 100's of complaints about this issue with the windows on the Lincoln Ls's. This is supposedly a luxury car- shouldn't Lincoln be required to fix this problem once and for all so people can feel safe and use their car for the purpose it was bought instead of having to keep in it the shop every 2 or 3 months?.

: the contact stated all four windows fall down. The front driver and passenger side window motors and frames have been replaced. The windows continues to fail. Also, the rear windows have the same problem. Although there have been repairs, the contact is unaware of the repairs made to the windows.

2002 Lincoln Ls. The consumer stated two window regulators; broke within a month of each other. The windows did not roll up or down, and they did not stay up. This started two weeks ago. The vehicle was taken to the dealership, who stated it would cost $300 to fix the windows , and the consumer has not had the problem fixed yet.

Window regulator failure. All regulators on vehicle have been replaced at least once over the last 3 years, and now one of those replaced previously is in need of replacement again. Failure renders window completely inoperative. Additionally, the front headlamps continue to build up moisture/condensation in them. These item have been replaced at least twice in the last 3 years and are in need of replace yet again.

The contact owns a 2000 Lincoln Ls. The air bag warning light first began to blink, and it is now staying on all the time. The dealership told the contact that this was what the air bag warning light did. The problem with the light first began about one month ago. Updated 11/16/2005 - the right rear windoe would not come back up. The dealer had to replace the window regulator assembly because it had broken.

I have had problems with the window mechanism in my Lincoln Ls. Several dealership service centers informed me that a lot of the Lincolns were having the same problem with a faulty window mechanism but they would not cover it because the car was out of warranty. I spoke to Ford and they agreed that because of the faulty mechanism they would fix the window for a discount. I paid 40 dollars for a 270 dollar repair. Recently the car has had the same problem with the faulty window mechanism. I brought it to the dealership expecting it to be covered the same as the last time. They told me they could not cover the cost of the window again. I contacted Ford who told me they don't know about the problems with the faulty window mechanisms. This problem caused damage to the inside of the car and makes the car vulnerable to break ins. I am unable to feel safe in the car now because the window will not roll all the way up. I would like an investigation into this issue for myself and all the other Lincoln owners having the same problem.

The driver side power window regulator continued to fail. As a result the owner was unable to roll the window up or down. The winder regulator was binding.

Dealership replaced the rear window mechanism four times. The first two times it was under warranty. The last two mechanism the consumer had to paid over $525. 00 please provide further information.

All four windows on my 2000 Lincoln Ls have failed and crashed into the door well. The rear windows have failed twice. Lincoln said that they have no record of this problem and refuses to comp for the repair costs.

I own a 2001 Lincoln Ls. In the three years I have owned the vehicle, the rear power window has burned out three times, most recently today. This is obviously a faulty part of the vehicle. Admittingly, the dealership stated that several vehicles had experienced the same, however no recall has been issued. The first incident during the first year of ownership was under waranty. The second occurence was split in cost this past August and now they are advising that they refuse to repar, despite the fact that it is the same equipment. They stated that I have exceeded the 12 months/12,00 miles. What can I do?.

I got my car in Jan. Of 2004, since then the dealership has seen it more than I have. The airbag light keeps coming on, window regulators keep going out, windows keep geting off track and making awful noises, windows slam shut, and the brakes are squealing but the dealship can never find the problem and when they do 'fix' these problems, a few weeks later they are broke again. I cant keep taking off work for this and the dealer I bought it from wont help me, and because it is a used car, there are no lemon laws. What can I do? help!!!.

Visibility:power window devices and controls I have had the rear passenger window regulator replaced twice and the front passenger window regulator once. The first rear window by Ford while under warranty,the second rear window at 60,000 miles and the front passenger regulator window at 70,000 miles.

Regarding 2000 Lincoln Ls 6 cyl. Within a period of one year I had 3 windows in the vehicle fail, both at the back and the other at the passenger window, which was the latest on 10/27/03. In all three, the regulator assembly and the cable have failed. Ford has told me that there have not been any recalls issued regarding this occurrence.

The driver side door handle will not allow the consumer to exit the vehicle. The dealer repaired the problem once, but six weeks later the problem recurred. Also the rear right electric window fell inside of the door and will not roll up. The manufacturer is not aware of the problems.

I was driving down the road and all of a sudden my rear window fell down, when I went to try and put it up, it sounded as if the window was being smashed.

Rear power window regulator, with failure history known to dealer, failed just outside warranty period. Despite their prior knowledge of recurring problem with this model, they did not advise or recommend upgraded equipment/repair until unit failed. Also refused to replace left rear unit despite anticipated failure. Refused to provide copy of technical service bulletin in their possession.

Both rear window regulators failed. The replacement window regulator on the rear left failed and resulted in a shattered window which then damaged the door paint. Shoddy repair work then led to further problems with the paint and finish. The faulty window regulators appear to be a chronic problem, since I know of another Ls owner with the same chronic problem. This problem at the wrong time or place can result in serious safety and security issues. Does not give one a good feeling about when this could happen again. The fix applied does not appear to be any better thatn the original equipment that failed. Ford needs to develop a solid fix for this luxury vehicle with windows that do not operate properly.

Power window failed within a week after warrenty dealer refused to repair eventhough this model has well documented history of such failures.

Consumer states that both front windows fell down in side the door. Vehicle has been to dealer on ten occasions, and the problem is recurring.

Power windows drop down intrmittently. Dealer has replaced regulator for all 4 windows. Did not remedy the problem. Consumer states dealer will not replace until relay switch(s) have failed. In a separate occasion, the front end of the vehicle vibrates when driving beteen 58-75 mph. Getting worst at higher speed. Tires were balanced, but vibration still exist.

While driving the air bag warning light continuously illuminated on the dashboard. As a result, air bags were inoperative and wouldn't deploy when needed, per dealership. The dealership replaced every air bag component, but the problem still existed. The right front headlight held moisture and the fog light held water. The dealer replaced the headlights and fog lights. The bulb for the left side fog light burned out. The left seat was loose. The dealer replaced the clips on the back of the seat. The driver's side front door wouldn't open front he inside. The dealer replaced the handle. The check engine light illuminated and the engine stalled while the vehicle was stopped. The dealer replaced the intake hose. The engine made noise. The dealer replaced the mass air flow sensor. The passenger's side front power window was inoperative. The dealer replaced the window regulator. Wind noise could be heard around both doors. The dealer replaced both body seals.
