All four doors started retaining water and I have to pull the rubber back and let it drain but when there was a hard rain I would get leaks from the moon roof area that leaked on to the console/gearshift area I took it to a shop but they couldn't find any thing wrong then after a hard rain I sucked 12 gallon of water out of the drivers side floorboard it seemed that it was seeping in from under the dash or somewhere under the floorboard because as soon as I vacuumed some more would appear also before I vac I could hear water sloshing and it wasn't in the doors if that wasn't enough my wife was driving and the moon roof opened by it self and would not close so I took it to a dealer and they charged me 150. 00 to close it and told me I needed two motors and a new switch and other parts totaling around 700. 00 and but I felt that all that wasn't needed since I had never open the roof before in 4 years which meant to me the motors should be ok since I had never used it so I declined the two motors and asked them to put everything else in and leave it closed and I would be satisfied so they closed the moon roof but not the sun screen and told me that they could not close the screen because the roof might open back up and they may not be able to get it closed I paid out 400. 00 and I'm driving around in a beautiful 2014 Mks I bought in 2015 new and only has 58000 miles and in mint condition love my Lincoln but scared when it rain this is a nightmare can you help or tell them how to correct the problem.

Outside temp 27 f. Opened front passenger door and it would not stay shut. Had to use rope to tie passenger door to rear door behind driver to keep it shut so I could go to eye doctor, a three hour drive away. As temperature has risen, it seems to be latching to stay shut now, but I do not trust it.

Tl the contact owns a 2015 Lincoln Mks. The contact stated that the fuel gauge was reading 3/4 of a tank after filling up the tank. The contact stated she noticed a fuel leak inside the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA campaign number: 15v605000 (fuel system, gasoline) however, the VIN was not included. The contact also stated that the front driver's and front passenger's side seat panels were detaching from the vehicle and prevented her from being able to move the seats. The contact also stated that the vehicle was unable to accelerate and jerked into gear while driving at various speeds. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer richmond Ford Lincoln (4600 w broad st, richmond, va 23230, (804) 358-5521) where it was diagnosed with needing the seat panels to be replaced. The dealer was made aware of the failure with the fuel tank reading. The vehicle was repaired but continued to experience the failure with the seat panels. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 15,160.

I stopped the car in my garage and pushed the keyless ignition button, but did not put the car in park. I exited the car and it slowly coasted down the driveway and into a deep gully. . The damage to the car from the accident and the wreckers getting it out of the gully was $14,400. I have since learned most well-enginered cars, excluding Ford/Lincoln, lock the breaks or put the car into park if the keyless ignition button is pusted before the car is put into park. (examples of well engineered cars include BMW and Toyota prius with respect to this issue. ) this is a major engineering safety issue. A driver can park a Ford product on a hill, push the ignition button to turn off the engine, but not put the car in park, and exit the car and the car will coast down the hill hitting anything or anybody in its path. I believe Ford should engineer their cars so this oversight will not result in substantial property damage or, worse, death of innocent people. Clearly other manufacturers have chosed to deal with this safety issue.
Two issues: the rear doors retain water after a storm and need to be drained by hand by holding the rubber flap at the bottom of the door away from the door itself. The locks randomly do not fully unlock when you use the key remote, the unlock button on the door, or even manually pulling on the lock knob. The lock knobs jump up and down and you have to try to open the door handle at the perfect time to catch the lock open in order to open the door. This problem seems to rotate through all 4 locks for random intervals and with random selection. It always seems to be on at least 2 locks at any given time.
The contact owns a 2010 Lincoln Mks. The contact stated that while driving 1 mph, the vehicle crashed into a large rock. As a result, the front bumper cracked the windshield wiper reservoir which made liquid spill out. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the bumper was pushed back in place but there was a hole in the wiper washer fluid tank. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000. Updated 03/07/lj.
