general problems of the 2007 Lincoln MKX

Takara recall - torque converter failure causing transmission issues which result in replacement. Found several reports online. Car shutters horribly at 40 mph until 50 mph.

I am inquiring about why there have been so many issues with the Lincoln Mkx from year 2007-2009 ignition coils connecting to the pcm or computer and it has never been an recalled issued. I called an this two months ago and made a complaint at the 8883274236 number. I was never contacted. I had no issues with my truck then about last March I was on the expressway driving and just lose power. I went to autozone and was told that I had a misfired. I have been to two different auto repair shops tto have this issue addressed and change out the coils and both have advised me that the computer is not reading the coil, which is standard in my type of truck. I am making an appointment at the dealership this week to have my air bag replaced for another recall this is the second one since I have this car. I would like to have this matter addressed and I also would like a return call or email back in return to this complaint.

When we purchased the vehicle from valley Cadillac in roanoke va in 2014. We smelled something burning a few days later. We took it back to the dealer who kept it for over a week. They told me that they would have to send it to the Ford dealer because they couldn't repair it. I was never was told what the issue was only that it cost upwards of $800. Here we are and I was stranded on i81 because the truck lost power and started vibrating . It was towed to a repair shop and I am mortified at the findings. The coil packs were bad. This is caused by the pcm computer failure. That information was not shared at time of purchase as something that needs routine maintenance. In addition, the fix was to weld a cracked and warped coil pack vs replacing it and he bad computer. Here I am $962 later and still need to replace the computer. Had this been done correctly the first time, I wouldn't be here. I have a picture that I will upload later. Incidentally the exact same thing happened to my daughters 2008 Mkx the month prior.

I went to the Ford dealership on greystone in columbia SC to get my recall done. I was told that the part I needed for the recall was not in stock and that they would have to order it. After two weeks pasted I called to see if the part came in and I was told, it was on back order and they didn't know how long it would take to come in and that they would call me once it arrived. I never received a call.

I was driving out of the parking lot suddenly anxious about the gas pedal because however hard I pressed it, the car wouldn't move ahead. I managed to get onto the main road with the emergency wrench coming up along with the driver airbag and zero mileage for the car indicating. However, this was lucky because it didn't happen on highway, I was extremely stressed out standing in the lane to turn to highway. I changed my mind, turned around, and returned to the parking lot at a crawl. I understand now that this is a common issue with the Lincoln Mkx 2007 due to the fact that the Ford opened a claim website related to just this problem. No wonder recently I have been bombarded with the letters to renew my factory warranty as soon as possible. Just as I paid off my car last January, it started breaking on me. Is it the reason why you make your cars to last only during the period of the 5-year factory warranty?!now, to change sensor on the pedal cost 400+ and I am afraid to drive Lincoln Mkx because of this safety issue.
