2013 LINCOLN MKS Complaints

MY FUEL PUMP DRIVER MODULE WHICH SUPPLIES POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP STOPPED WORKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 48,222 MILES. LUCKILY, THE CAR WAS NOT IN DRIVING MODE. IT WOULD JUST NOT START IN MY DRIVEWAY. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE LINCOLN DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MODULE LOCATED BEHIND THE REAR SEAT BACK FAILED. THAT WAS A $488.64 BILL. I NOW SEE THAT THIS IS ONLY COVERED WITH THE 3.5 TURBO MKS, HOWEVER, THEY ARE THE SAME VEHICLES JUST WITH THE TURBO FEATURE. I DO FEEL THAT MY SITUATION IS RELATED TO THE SAFETY RECALL. THE VEHICLE WOULD CRANK BUT THE MODULE PREVENTED THE ELECTRONIC FUEL PUMP FROM WORKING. HOW CAN I RECEIVE SOME FORM OF COMPENSATION FOR THE REPAIR OF $488.64??? THAT MODULE SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED WITH A VEHICLE ONLY HAVING 48,222 MILES ON IT. THE CAR IS IN TOP PRISTINE CONDITION. I PURCHASED ANOTHER OEM FORD UNIT FOR A BACKUP IF THIS SHOULD OCCUR AGAIN. I CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER $500.00 SERVICE BILL FOR THIS ISSUE. I WILL HAVE MY LINCOLN DEALER RESEARCH THE NEW OEM PART SO THAT IT ALSO WILL NOT FAIL.

UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V621000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED.

LOSS OF POWER ASSIST STEERING, COULD NOT CONTROL VEHICLE ON THE ROAD. STEERING WAS STICKY, NOT SMOOTH ROTATION OF STEERING WHEEL, HARD TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT LINE IT STARTED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A WARNING TO SERVICE STEERING NOW AND WHEN I TURNED OFF THE CAR TO LOOK AT IT, WHEN I STARTED IT BACK UP, I LOST ALL POWER STEERING ASSIST

THE CONTROL FOR TEMPERATURE IN CAR AT ANY TIME CAN GO TO MAXIMUM HEAT WHILE DRIVING. IT IS UNBEARABLE INSIDE OF THE CAR NOT GOOD FOR MY ELDER MOM WHEN IT HAPPENS AS IT IS TOO HOT IN CAR

THE POWER STEERING GOES IN AND OUT MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL WHEN IT HAPPENS. VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN THE WHEEL, ISSUE # 2 TEMPERATURE CONTROL GOES FROM SET TEMPERATURE TO FULL HEAT UNASSISTED. YOU CANNOT TURN THE HIGH TEMPERATURE SETTING OFF. IT IS UNBEARABLE TO DRIVE IN CAR WITH HEAT ON FULL BLAST. BOTH OF THESE ISSUES CAN HAPPEN IN MOTION OR WHEN STOPPED

MY 2013 MKS IS STALLING WHILING DRIVING NUMEROUS TIMES, ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT A FEW DAYS AGO. THERE IS A RECALL ON 2013 MKS FUEL MODULE BECAUSE IT CUTS OUT WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER, AFTER CALLING LINCOLN I AM TOLD THAT MY LINCOLN MKS 2013 IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. LINCOLN REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MY 2013 MKS IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE WHERE ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING. BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. I ORIGINALLY TOOK THE CAR OR MY MECHANIC BECAUSE I NEEDED IT LOOKED AT RIGHT AWAY AS IT'S EXTREMELY UNSAFE. MY MECHANIC ALERTED ME TO THE RECALL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW LINCOLN THINKS MY CAR DOES NOT APPLY TO RECALL.

EVERY RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH THE 2013 LINCOLN MKS I HAVE WRONG WITH MY VEHICLES. BUT WHEN I CALL TO HAVE IT SERVICED THEY TELL ME MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS, BUT YET MY VEHICLE HAS ALL THE RECALL PROBLEMS.

I LOST MY STEERING IN MY VEHICLE. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED NOW THE PROBLEM WITH MY 2013 LINCOLN MKS IS RACK-AND-PINION-STEERING. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY MAIN STREET WHEN I STARTED TO LOSE IT. MY STEERING WAS EASIER. DOVE A BIT FURTHER DOWN THE MAIN STREET WHEN I LOST STEERING ALL TOGETHER. I NEED $2500.00 TO FIX I DON'T HAVE THAT RIGHT NOW. NO PAPERWORK YET TO SEND. I AM FURLOUGHED DUE TO COVID. THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VIN #. THERE WAS ON OTHER LINCOLN'S WE WERE TOLD.

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM (FCIM) THAT CAUSES THE TEMPERATURE TO RUN UP TO MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE. IT CANNOT BE SHUT OFF. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE WITH EXTREMELY ELEVATED TEMPERATURES IN THE CAR YOU ARE VERY LIABLE TO FALL ASLEEP. OR TRY TO REDUCE THE TEMP BY BANGING ON THE CONTROLS, THIS MAKES YOU VERY DISTRACTED. THIS PROBLEM EXISTS WHENEVER THE CAR IS RUNNING, IN MOTION OR STOPPED.
