The right headlight is filling up with condensation which is shorting out the battery. Replaced it more condensation is back in it. Mechanic says seals are no good says its a common problem in all Lincolns. Lights and adaptive module cost well over 5k for one light not including the labor. This is a potential for a fire hazard.
Condensation build up in my passenger headlamp has caused the led rope lighting to stop working. This shows a recall but one not offered at this time. I have never received any recalls through the mail form. I recently moved and my address is as follows: sharon kidd 12063 signal view rd,knoxville TN 37932.
The contact owns a 2016 Lincoln Mkx. The contact stated that the warning indicator illuminated to check the head lamp system and "see manual on the display" displayed on the message board. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice, but they were unable to replicate and diagnose the failure. The dealer reprogrammed the hcm, but the warning indicator flashed several times again months later. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer a third time for further testing again and they later told the contact to pick up the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was notified. The contact was waiting for a response from the manufacturer. The approximate failure mileage was 365.
