general problems of the 2014 Lincoln MKZ

The transmission is slipping my car is only has 53,000 miles on it, the radio doesn’t work I had to pay over $1000 to fix the trunk latch and my brakes are fine but not working properly.

I was sitting in idle staying warm in car. When I decided to leave, I noticed I couldn't turn the steering wheel or that it was very difficult to steer. I have not had this issue inspected. The warning lights that was on before was "service advancedtrac", "collision warning not available" "drive control malfunction service required". I called sons Ford auburn where they stayed there was no recall for this issue. I also called Lincoln customer service where they told me the recall doesn't fall under my vehicle due to it being a hybrid and that I don't have the bolts associated with the recall.

I push my start button and it makes the starting nose and after a few minutes it starts and when I go to move it stalls out and then won't start again or starts and stalls again. But the next day drives fine. And it has been happening now for months even after we fixed the high rich codes it was giving out but now there's no codes appearing.

User interface for hvac, entertainment system, and everything through the Ford sync screen is unusable. Had this repaired 11 months prior. Issue returned. Dealer says , “there are several things going on with it. 1 the front inter face control module 2. Display screen and 3. Apim. Parts labor and tax it would run $2,670. 00. ” there are many instances of reports of these issues with not only the Mkz models, but with many of Ford’s lineup including Ford and Lincoln vehicles. Safety implications are uncontrollable heat (unsafe temperature levels and fatigue inducing), uncontrollable sound levels (distracting and can’t hear environment), loss of hands free, loss of backup camera.
