2012 LINCOLN MKZ Complaints

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED IN 2014FROM A FORD LINCOLN, MERCURY DEALERSHIP. I AM NOW ATTEMPTING, THROUGH DISCOVERY, TO DETERMINE IF THIS VEHICLE VIA ITS VIN# HAS ANY RECALLS AGAINST IT!

I PURCHASED THIS AUTO USED FROM A DEALER LOT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THE RECALL FOR THE REFERENCED AUTO WAS CORRECTED?

I CURRENTLY HAVE A RENTAL CAR BECAUSE OF THE "TAKATA RECALL", BUT THE MAIN ISSUE IS THE TRACTION CONTROL FUNCTION. THE ADJUSTMENTS MADE WHEN TRACTION CONTROL IS ON, DURING PERIODS OF RAIN HAVE ALMOST CAUSE 3 COLLISIONS I THINK OF. ITS NOT LIKE A LOSS OF POWER STEERING, BUT AN OVERCOMPENSATION. IT FEELS READY TO HYDROPLANE WHEN EVER THERE IS HEAVY RAIN. I HAVE ALSO REPLACED ALL FOUR WHEELS AND IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE.

WHILE DRIVING THERE IS A LARGE POP SOUND AND THEN EXTREME STATIC / "WHITE NOISE" THAT COMES THROUGH THE SPEAKER SYSTEM EVEN IF THE AUDIO IS TURNED OFF. IT WILL PERIODICALLY DO THIS OFF AND ON AND IS EXTREMELY LOUD AND DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. ALSO BECAUSE IT IS SO SPORADIC AND THE POP AND STATIC NOISE IS NEVER KNOWN WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IT HAS NEARLY CAUSED ACCIDENTS FROM BEING SCARED WHEN IT COMES ON SUDDENLY. IT DOES THIS WHILE CITY DRIVING OR HIGHWAY DRIVING. I CAN NOT TAKE A PICTURE OF A SOUND BUT I DO HAVE VIDEO AND YOU CAN ALSO YOUTUBE OTHER PEOPLES COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT BEGAN FOR ME ON JULY 24, 2018 AND HAS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN ON A DAILY BASIS SINCE THEN.

TAKATA INFLACTORS RECALL OF JAN. 2017 PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENT STILL NOT AVAILABLE. "TAKATA RECALL"

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY 50 -60 MPH THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING ON THE DASH IS SAYS PULL OVER SAFELY. THE CAR RESTARTS ONCE STOPPED THE KEY TURNED OFF THEN ON. THE PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS ., ESPECIALLY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.THIS HAS HAPPENED 7-8 TIMES IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS.

RECENTLY I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY ADVISING ME OF A RECALL REGARDING MY CAR'S AIRBAGS. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, DUE TO NO LINCOLN DEALERSHIP NEARBY AND WAS TOLD NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE TO REPLACE MY CARS AIRBAG. ON JUNE 4, 2018 I RECEIVED A SECOND NOTICE ADVISING ME AGAIN OF THE RECALL AND ALSO NO PARTS ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE SAFETY DEFECT. WHEN WILL THE SAFETY DEFECT BE REPAIRED ON MY VEHICLE? WHY AM I GETTING NOTICES OF THE RECALL BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE? PLEASE ADVISE ME WHEN THIS SAFETY ISSUE WILL BE RESOLVED.

TAKATA RECALL HAS NOT BEEN REMEDIED. I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE (17S01/NHTSA 17V-024) MARCH 2017.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY (17S01) STATING THE AIRBAG ON MY VEHICLE WAS DEFECTIVE AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN 1 YEAR AND NO NOTIFICATION. I BELIEVE THE MANUFACTURE HAS HAD SUFFICIENT TIME TO PRODUCE THE PART AND DISTRIBUTE TO DEALERS TO CORRECT THIS DEFICIENCY, YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THUS FAR THEIR HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT AND IT IS UNKNOWN IF THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY PROPERLY SHOULD A COLLISION OCCUR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2012 LINCOLN MKZ. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000.
