Car Will Not Accelerate Problems of Lincoln MKX

This is my parent's vehicle (2007 Lincoln Mkx) and information is being entered on their behalf. While driving at 55 mph, there was a "pop" which made the driver think she may have run over something, which she did not. Driver slowed and vehicle then started vibrating & hesitating. Engine light came on and vehicle would not accelerate above 45 mph (speed limit increased to 70 mph on hwy and vehicle speed could have caused an accident if other drivers were not aware of a slow moving vehicle). Vehicle was taken to dealer next day and owners were told coils were burned out and computer system was affected. Dealer also stated that catalytic converter may have been affected if vehicle had continued to be driven. Cost to repair estimated at $2400. 00. Mileage at time of incident was a little over 66,000 original miles. We are seeing other complaints online of coils burning out and computer problems for this model and feel Lincoln should investigate this if they have not already done so. We also feel the full burden of repairs should not be on the owner as this seems to be happening to several vehicles.
