TAKATA RECALL- IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 2-1/2 YEARS SINCE I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE..I CONTINUE TO DRIVE MY CAR AS IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION...WHEN WILL LINCOLN BE FORCED TO MAKE REPAIRS? I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE...

EARLY THIS SUMMER THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR OPEN/LOCK MECHANISM BROKE. THE DOOR CAN NOT BE LOCKED. IT CAN BE OPENED FROM INSIDE BUT WITH MORE FORCE THAN USUAL. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE VERY SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED WTH THE DRIVER SIDE, FRONT, MECHANISM. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW AND NOT A COINCIDENCE.

REF. PREVIOUS COMPLAINT NO. 11104176 - RECALLED SINCE JULY 2016. APRIL 1018 SUPPLIED RENTAL CAR - SAID MY AUTO COULD NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL REPAIRED. I WANT MY CAR REPAIRED. SEEMS OVER 2 YEARS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TIME. I DON'T LIKE THE RENTAL - I WANT MY CAR BACK. OFFERED TO SELL TO THEM - BUT THEY WOULD RATHER WASTE MONEY ON RENTAL RATHER THAN SATISFY A CUSTOMER.

I, AS WELL AS MY MECHANIC, WANT TO KNOW WHY LINCOLN GETS OUT OF TAKING CARE OF THEIR DEFECTIVE TAILLIGHT ISSUE ON VEHICLES THAT HAVE SALVAGE TITLES? IT WOULD BE ONE THING IF THE LIGHTS WERE DAMAGED OR DESTROYED IN THE ACCIDENT - BUT IF A CAR HAS BEEN BACK ON THE ROAD FOR YEARS, YET MEETS THE OTHER CRITERIA - WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR TAILLIGHTS THAT WENT OUT AT 60,000 MILES? IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS ISN'T A WINDOW SWITCH, IT'S SOMETHING I CAN BE TICKETED FOR OR CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS OPTIONAL FOR THE LINCOLN COMPANY. MINE HAS BEEN OUT FOR A YEAR, I LOST MY JOB DUE TO HEALTH ISSUES SEVERAL YEARS AGO, HAVE NO MONEY TO DEAL WITH IT - AND YOU HAVE MADE IT SO LINCOLN DOESN'T HAVE TO. I HAVE TALKED TO THEM LOCALLY, THEIR CORPORATE NUMBER - AND MY MECHANIC HAD ME CONTACT THE STATE PATROL PERSON WHO DEALS WITH DEALERS. NOBODY CARES.
