general problems of the 2011 Lincoln MKX

The contact owns a 2011 Lincoln Mkx. The contact stated that while the vehicle was stopped at a traffic light, upon shifting the gear shifter into drive, the vehicle started reversing independently. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle five times before the vehicle started operating as intended. The vehicle was then driven to the residence. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer nor independent mechanic to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 192,000.

The car speed decelerating. I was driving on freeway going 75 miles yellow wrench came on car decelerated to 45 miles an 18 wheeler was behind me and couldn’t stop almost hit me thankful the opposite lane was free and he was able to change lanes in time. Once lane decelerates it shut completely down. This could have cost me my life. The vehicle is in the shop took it before and because the light don’t stay on they can’t read it . I seen where there was a recall on the body throttle in 2017 I didn’t own the vehicle then. The light only appeared right before it decelerates this is the second time in 6 months the light never stays on. After the incident on sat April 23; the light went off n the car drove smoothly but I cannot have this happening unexpectedly because this is too dangerous.

Ptu failure on a vehicle that already had service on the same part. Loud grinding, drag, intermittent noise that peaked in the beginning around 35-40mph, eventually grinding at low speed, loud banging noise. Sounds like a fan blade clattering around as it spins. This problem should be covered under recall and is very dangerous. Vehicle is out of warranty.

On i35, driving 70, vehicle suddenly lost acceleration completely and we were able to coast to shoulder, car still running. Warning light low oil pressure came on as well as sydtem trans alert. When put in gear would go 10 yards, would quit.

The problem was diagnosed as a failed throttle body, with trouble codes p2111 present in the on-board computer system, indicating the electronic throttle actuator control system was stuck open and closed, respectively.

Shift indicator for park does not light up not allowing to turn car off. Have to wiggle to get it to park.

My 2011 Lincoln Mkx has a blown head gasket. One week prior to this diagnosis, my car was evaluated and diagnosed by the Lincoln dealership because of an engine light being on. There were no symptoms--only the light was on when the car was on. I had the oil changed by the dealership at this time as well. The diagnosis stated that no problem could be found, but that the light may come back on, and I would need to bring it back for (and pay for) another diagnostic check. The next day, the light came back on, still with no symptoms other than the light being on. I wasn't able to get the Lincoln to the dealership right away. Exactly one week later, still with no symptoms other than the light being on, I drove the Lincoln on a highway close to my home for 5 minutes and it began struggling like it was going to stall. Immediately the light "low engine oil pressure" came on. Then immediately the car stalled, and I coasted onto the shoulder of the road. There were no other symptoms other than the struggling engine immediately before stalling and the "low engine oil pressure light". I had it towed to the nearest 5-star rated auto repair place, and within a few hours, they called me and diagnosed the Lincoln with a blown head gasket. The lead mechanic stated that this was determined by visual inspection of the oil as it had engine coolant mixed with oil. He called it the "classic milkshake look" that is apparent when there is a blown head gasket.

I was driving about 55 to 60 mph, just off highway, while my Mkx all of sudden lost all power. The vehicle was still moving, however, stepped on the gas pedal, the car was not gaining any speed. I managed to pull over immediately to avoid rear-ended and shut off the engine. After a few minutes, tried to start the vehicle, it sounded nosier than usual but it seems worked fine. The weather condition is nice and shiny. I was on the road for about 1. 5 hours, rush hour with about 30 min bumper to bumper. My Mkx is a 2011 model with 51000 miles. I googled this issue and found out "Ford motor company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2012-2014 Ford edge and Lincoln Mkx vehicles manufactured September 2, 2010, to November 30, 2013. The Ford recall number is 14s10" for the same problem I was experienced. Why Mkx 2011 model is not included.
