1992 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL Complaints

THIS LINCOLN NOW HAS 147,000 MILES ON IT . THE HEAD GASKETS ARE LEAKING AGAIN, THEY WERE REPLACED 2 TIMES ALREADY. GETTING CHECK DCL LIGHT, BUZZER ALL THE TIME, THIS WAS FIXED ONCE ALREADY. A/C STILL BLOWS HOT AIR. I WILL NEVER BUY A LINCOLN AGAIN.. I HAVE SPENT TO MUCH MONEY FIXING FORDS REACURRING PROBLEMS.

HEAD GASKET LEAK CAUSED OVERHEAT, COMMON PROBLEM, RECALL ON OTHER YEARS, $1500 REPAIR, IF THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS WHY WON'T THEY RECALL THE 1992?*AK

I HAVE HEARD OF A RECALL ON THE 90-91, AND 94 MODELS, BUT NOT ON THE 92. ALSO, OUR 92 WAS BUILT IN 11/91; WOULD THAT RECALL BE FOR MODEL YEAR 91, OR ALL VEHICLES BUILT IN 91? I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS AMOUNTS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS ENGINE AND ITS HEAD GASKET PLAGUE. ANY INFORMATION YOU COULD PROVIDE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU!. NO SAFETY DEFECT DISCUSSED IN SUMMARY. *AK

BRAKES WORK INTERMITTENTLY. DEALER COULDN'T SEEM TO FIND A PROBLEM. CONSUMER TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC & THEY TEST DROVE IT & FOUND A PROBLEM, BUT NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS. THEY'RE STILL INSPECTING THE VEHICLES PROBLEM.*AK

I DON'T KNOW IF A BLOWN HEAD GASKET IS A SAFETY PROBLEM. MAYBE IF THE ENGINE WAS TO STALL OR QUIT AND THERE WAS A LOSS OF CONTROL, THEN PERSONAL LIABILITY WOULD BE A FACTOR. *AK
