    - TROUTVILLE, VA

    TIE ROD ENDS REPLACED, FRONT END REALIGNED, STEERING MAKING NOISE AND DEALER CLAIMED THAT STEERING RACK NEEDS REPLACED TO COST $500.00, DEALER CLAIMED REPAIRS NOT SUBJECT TO WARRANTLY NOR RECALL. UPON RESEARCH, I FIND THAT LINCOLN HAS ISSUED SERVICE BULLETINS FOR BOTH DEFECTS. I PAID FOR THE WORK TO REPLACE THE TIE ROD ENDS AND HAVE NOT HAVE HAD THE STEERING WORK DONE AS I THINK IT SHOULD BE LINCOLN'S RESPONSIBILITY. THESE FAILURES WERE AT LOW MILES 51,408 AND BECAUSE OF THE SERVICE BULLETINS, LINCOLN IS AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS. *AK
