The floor mats would get stuck on gas pedal it happened when driving.
Takata recall my driver's side floor mat moved and getting caught up by brake.
This is my fathers car. He is a wwii vet and just shy of 98 years old. We just replaced an ac on the car, and now the computer has failed and need replacing. The federal warranty for this state is 8 years or 80k miles. The car has 47k miles and the 8 year warranty ended 1 month and 20 days ago. Lincoln will not stand behind their product to even prorate an amount to help him. This is the vehicle he uses to get to dr appts. I find it hard to swallow there lack of compassion for him and their product.
Driver's interior door handle does not open the door. Must lower power window and open from outside. If in a serious accident, this could have deadly consequences.
The vent on my 2008 Lincoln Mkz is popping up away from the dash and the dash is buckeling. I believe this is a defect in the clips because it was at the Ford dealership and they said the clips were wore out. . How do clips were out on a dash. The car is not very old for this to happen. Just want to see if there are other owners out there experiencing the same problem.
Bought this car from a Lincoln dealer ship in norman, oklahoma. Later moved to texas to be closer to my daughter. The car had not done this before, but one night while I was at their house, walked out and the car started by its self. Several times I have been shopping and have come out and my sun-roof and all of my windows are down. This has happened several times since. I regularly take it to a Lincoln dealer here in houston. I have asked them several times what the problem is, and they say that it is related to the programmed key, and their is nothing they can do about it. I am 78 years old, and having this happen in the houston area is really a safety factor. Have tried to manipulate the key to try and make theses things happen, but to no avail. A gentlemen that resides where I live now recently came up to my apartment and wanted to know if I knew that my sun-roof and windows were down. Every dealership that I have taken it too does not seem to know what the problem is. Only that is related to the key. I need help solving this problem. I can only guess at the date when it first happened.
After spending over 3,500$ on noises while turning and having replaced the tires because the tire was constantly going flat the 17" 8 spoke machined & painted aluminum wheel began to corrode and peel. Two of the tires leaked air around the contact of the rim and tire because of the corrosion. This condition requires having the wheel taken apart and corrosion removed then reassembling the wheel and re-balancing the tire assembly before re-installing back on to car. I have averaged servicing these tires from once a week to once a month depending on the time of year for the last three years and have had to purchase more tires in order compensate for the ware on the tire when having to drive with under inflated tires while trying to safely navigate to the nearest air pump sometimes on a daily basis! the car dealer is aware. This is a safety violation!! the out of pocket cost to continuously have these tires replaced, repaired. The poor gas mileage has brought the actual cost of this car upwards of 43,000. 00:(.
