My vehicle a 2012 Lincoln Mkx with under 32,000 miles sporadically when shifted to park the gear shift does not show the vehicle has been set to park. & a message appears instructing to "shift the vehicle to park".
While driving on the highway, brake pedal goes to the floor board. Replaced rotors brake pads and calipers. A couple of weeks later, pedal goes to floorboard again. Replaced master cylinder, but was told it was probably the abs booster. Needs to be a recall. This is the 60 th complaint. Also back up camera is upside down.
The gear shifter is in park but the car does not show that it is in park so it's saying that you need to shift it into park which appears to be unsafe if it is showing red on the gear changer mechanism on the screen and that the vehicle is properly in park.
Diverside door ajar light on even when door closed, when vehicle stationary or in motion.
Driver side door ajar sensor is defective which causes warning light on dash to light, shift into park light to come on and interior lights to stay on. I could live with the annoyance of the door ajar light and shift to park light to come on but the interior lights staying on runs the battery down and could strand my wife and I on the road. The Ford dealer is well aware of this ongoing defect in nearly all their suvs. Rather than fixing the problem (well known problem at the Ford company) they charge $600. 00 to $1200. 00 to replace the sensor at the dealerships. The idea that they (Ford) are continuing to knowingly sell very expensive cars with defective parts is a terrible disservice to the public. This issue occurs every time I open and shut the drivers side door.
Loosing power while driving wrench light comes up saying locked. It has happened 3 times. Twice 2 years ago and once on August 23, 2016. Dealer cannot replicate code. Very dangerous, especially when going 60 miles on highway. Lincoln will not do anything said they could not find anything wrong? last time it happened I was driving 30 miles per hour. Another time 60 miles per. Manage to pull over because it just above moved, like 1 mile per hour.
