2014 LINCOLN MKZ Complaints

THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON 1 DAY AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED. I WAS TOLD PURGE VALVE NEEDED REPLACEMENT

WHEN REVERSING, BACKUP CAMERA INTERMITTENTLY RESTARTS, SHUTS OFF, OR NEVER SHOWS. THIS IS A DANGER AS IT IS UNPREDICTABLE AND CAN CAUSE DAMAGE IF IT TURNS OFF WHILE IN MOTION. CAR DISPLAY SAYS "CAMERA UNAVAILABLE. PLEASE CONTACT DEALERSHIP". CODE READER GIVES ERROR C1001 GENERAL ELECTRIC FAILURE.

I BROUGHT 2 NEW BATTERIES AND MY CAR WONT KEEP A CHARGE. I ALSO HAD TEST DONE ON MY VEHICLE 3 TIMES AND RESULTS SHOW BATTERY, STARTER, AND ALTERNATOR ARE ALL GOOD SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM.

THE DOOR LATCH OF THE PASSENGER DOOR IS BROKEN. THIS IS IN CONJUNCTION WITH LINCOLN RECALL # 17V210000 DOOR LATCH RECALL. THERE WAS ALSO A SECOND RECALL # 15S16 THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. IGNITION OFF. A DOOR THAT FUNCTIONED FINE EARLIER IN THE DAY, SUDDENLY WOULD NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. ON CLOSER INSPECTION, DOOR LATCH WAS BROKEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 LINCOLN MKZ. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V875000 (SEAT BELTS) AND 15V246000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER AND ROBINSON BROTHERS FORD (LOCATED AT 11455 AIRLINE HWY, BATON ROUGE, LA 70816) HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES, BOTH ON CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. THE DATE CHOSEN FOR WHEN THIS HAPPENED WAS THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED. THE BATTERY WILL NOT KEEP A CHARGE AND A CERTIFIED MECHANIC HAS HAD THE CAR FOR 2 WEEKS AND CAN NOT LOCATE THE REASON THE BATTERY DRAINS COMPLETELY WITHIN 8 HOURS.

PICTURE OF AMWRENCH CAME UP ON THE DASH INDICATING TO CHECK OWNERS MANUEL. POWERTRAIN ISSUE. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS (2014 LINCOLN MKZ HYBRID RECALL # 13VS94000) BUT MY VIN IS NOT LISTED. WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 LINCOLN MKZ. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE COOLANT WAS REFILLED EVERY WEEK. THE CONTACT'S SON STATED THAT THE WRENCH ICON ILLUMINATED AND DISAPPEARED WHEN THE COOLANT WAS REFILLED. THE CONTACT DID NOT KNOW IF THERE WAS A LEAK. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

2014 LINCOLN MKZ ON WHICH THE SEAT HEATERS HAD QUIT WORKING. TOOK THE CAR TO A FORD DEALER AND FOUND OUT THAT THE NEGATIVE WIRE FROM THE MODULE CONNECTER TO THE CONTROL MODULE HAD SHORTED SND BURNED. THIS PROBLEM COULD HAVE DEVELOPED INTO A FIRE AT ANY TIME IN THAT THERE IS POWER TO THIS CONTROLLER FULL TIME. AS TO THE TIME THIS SHORTAGE OCCURED COULD HAVE BEEN ANY TIME.

I INFORM LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY ON MY LINCOLN HAS BEEN RECALLED, WHICH IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW TO A RECORD NUMBER OF AMERICANS, BUT IT'S EVEN WORSE WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOUR CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED AND CAN'T GET THE MANUFACTURER TO SERVICE IT AT A DEALERSHIP. WHEN YOU'RE TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO PARTS OR NO TECHNICIANS TO FIX YOUR CAR, WHAT DO YOU DO? I WAS TOLD IT'S NOT THAT BAD AND DIDN'T NEED TO BE REPLACING RIGHT NOW. HAD MY CAR IN TO BE SERVICE ON RECALL 18S08, THAT IS WHEN THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T PUT THE LUG NUTS BACK ON MY CAR, AND THE WHEEL FELL OFF THE CAR CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END OF THE CAR. THE LUGS NUTS SWELL, CRACK AND DELAMINATE TO THE POINT SPECIAL TOOLS ARE NEEDED TO REMOVE THE LUG NUTS. HAD 3 BLOWOUT DUE TO THE WHEEL FRAME WAS BENT, AND WAS REPLACE DURING THE DAMAGE THE DEALERSHIP DONE TO THE CAR. PICTURE WAS PROVIDED TO LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY. I WAS NOTIFIED BY LINCOLN ABOUT NHTSA 14V-597, AND OF THE DATE STILL NOT REPAIRED. TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS THAT COULD EXPLODE VIOLENTLY DESPITE CONTAINING A CHEMICAL MEANT TO LESSEN THE RISK OF THE SHRAPNEL-SHOOTING RUPTURES. BUT FORD IS LOOKING TO AVOID ANOTHER COSTLY RECALL. CAN'T FIND THE NATSA# MY LINCOLN NOW UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR BRAKE FAILURE. A SIGNIFICANT DEFECT CAN MAKE MY CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I'VE BEEN HAVING THE IDIOT LIGHT COME ON WITH LIGHTNING BOLT WORDS CHECK YOUR BRAKES. THE MESSAGE I GOT WAS THEY WERE GOING TO CLOSE THE CASE# BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO REMEDY FOR ME. THEY DISCOVER MY WARRANTY ON THE CAR IS RUNNING OUT AND DON'T WANT TO BE BOTHER WITH THE PROBLEM.
