general problems of the 2006 Lincoln Town Car

Fuel tank strap broke leaving only 1 strap to hold fuel tank in place. Multiple complaints filed but no recall. What are you waiting for? someone to die in a fire? this needs to be addressed with a nationwide recall.

When braking to stop there was sudden acceleration that braking could not control resulting in hitting the rear of a stopped car in front of me. This has happened in the past with no warning. It usually happens when braking, but not always. I have had the car to a Ford dealership twice with this problem. They claim they can find nothing wrong with the car. I took it into them today after this incident. They would not even look at the car. Said that Ford had no bulletins on this and said that I was on mu own. I see online that there has been a class action lawsuit against Ford about this. This could be a life-threatening problem. What do I do?.

The fuel rail assembly develops pinholes in it and gasoline fuel leaks on the manifold and engine and can start a car fire. The fuel rail assembly has failed on a lot of these cars. The fuel rail assembly fails on its own. There is no wear and tear on this ietm. Ford has not issued a recall for this safety issue.

While exiting a parking facility cars were doing an alternate merge into a single lane. It was slow stop and go and I was waiting my turn with my foot on the brake. All of a sudden my car accelerated aggressively and I slammed on the brakes and put it in park. I used just less than a car length to stop the car after it lurched froward. I noticed that the tachometer momentarily exceeded 4000 rpm. This would have been an accident except for fortuitous timing. I allowed the car to my left space to merge and there was about a car length of space available which the other car had not entered yet. That space gave me the margin to get the car stopped without hitting a car in front of me.
