2006 LINCOLN ZEPHYR Complaints

MANUFAC RECALL #19S54 NHTA RECCALL #19V904 MASTER CYLINDER VALVE. MY VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED YET AND FIRST INFORMATION WAS THAT IT WAS EXPECTED TO BE DONE IN LATE 2020 NOW 3RD MONTH IN2021. WHAT IS THE TIME FRAME FOR REPAIRS AT THIS DATE. IS THERE PROGRESS BEING MADE? AT THIS TIME BRAKES ARE WORKING OK

I CAME TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF A GROCERY STOREAND APPLIED THE BRAKE BEFORE TURNING THE CAR OFF. THE NEXT THING I K NEW THE CAR WAS HEADED TOWARD WALL. THE CAR HIT THE WALL B WITH FORCE THAT EMPLOYED MY AIR BAG.AND DAMAGED THE FRONT OF MY CAR. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY INCIDENT I HAVE HAD WITH THE BRAKES . I ALWAYS TRY TO DRIVE A CAR LENGTH FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME FOR FEAR OF THE BRAKES MALFUNCTING....

I HAVE AN AIRBAG LIGHT THAT COMES ON IN THIS CAR, THERE IS SUPPOSED TO BE EXTENDED COVERAGE FROM WHEN THEY REPLACED IT THE FIRST TIME UNDER WARRANTY FOR 1ST RECALL, DEALER TRYING TO SAY I MIGHT HAVE TO PAY TO DIAG IT BECAUSE IT COULD BE UNRELATED, BUT ALSO I JUST READ AN ARTICLE DATED 1/22/2021 STATING THERE IS ANOTHER AIRBAG RECALL FOR 2006 ZEPYHR BUT MY VIN ISNT SHOWING UP. HTTPS://WWW.CARANDDRIVER.COM/NEWS/A35283747/FORD-AIRBAG-RECALL-3-MILLION/

THE CAR HAS 82,000 MILES ON IT. THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR SEEMS TO BE ACTING UP. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON THE NET, IT APPEARS THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE 04 WITH FORDS. IN ADDITION, THEY ARE ON THE 3RD GENERATION SENSOR. I WAS DRIVING NORMAL SPEEDS, THEN THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, KILLING THE POWER TO THE ENGINE, PUT ME IN A PRECARIOUS SITUATION ON A 45 50 MILE AN HR ROAD. SINCE THIS KNOWN ISSUE SINCE 04, SEEMS LIKE FORD SHOULD REPLACE THIS. IT'S A 20 DOLLAR PART, RETAIL, BUT WITH THIS MOTOR, YOU HAVE TO BUY A TOTALLY REBUILT THROTTLE BODY FOR 200+. IT IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT CAN SLOW THE CAR RIGHT DOWN AS YOU ARE DRIVING. IF YOU SHUT THE MOTOR OFF, IT 'REPAIRS' ITSELF AND WORKS NORMALLY.

THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE TIME. WHEN YOU TAKE OFF THE CAR IS GUTLESS NO POWER. UNTIL YOU HIT TRACTION CONTROL OFF. SOMETIMES DOES IT AFTER. BIT. SOMEONE ALMOST HIT ME PULLING OUT FROM THE GAS STATION LAST NIGHT AGAIN, DUE TO NO POWER! IT ALSO MESSES WITH THE SHIFTING DUE TO THE TRACTION CONTROL IVE PUT EVERYTHING INTO MY CAR. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM DUE TO THE FACT IT CAN MESS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE THROWING OFF THE TIMING. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED, IVE SEEN MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE EXACT SAMETHING. THEN THERE'S THE BRAKES WHICH ARE NEW BUT YET THE PEDAL HAS TO BE PUSHED ALMOST TO THE FLOOR TO COME TO COMPLETE STOP.

RECIEVED RECALL NOTICE IN JANUARY 2020 INDICATING PARTS AVAILABILITY BY THE END OF FIRST QUARTER. STILL WAITING, DEALER IS STONE WALLING INFORMATION. COMPLAINT #111321247 FILED AND STILL NO CONTACT FROM LINCOLN OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. WHEN ABS OPERATES, BRAKING IS ALMOST NON EXISTENT AND TAKES SEVERAL DAYS FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL TO COME BACK TO NORMAL. BRAKING DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE NORMAL!!! STOPPING ON SNOW.

I HAVEN'T BEING ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR SINCE 2017 I HAVE 3 DIFFERENT RECALLS ON MY CAR & I FEAR FOR MY LIFE BECAUSE I HAVE A TODDLER NO BUYOUT CHECK OR RENTER CAR HAVE BEING PROVIDED FOR US BY FORD 3 ALMOST 4 YEARS LATER I JUST WANT MY BUYOUT CHECK IT CAN'T WAIT ON FORD TO FIX MY PROBLEM ANY LONGER MY RENTER I DID HAVE WAS REPORTED STOLEN BECAUSE FORD WOULD NO LONGER PAY WHICH IS PUTTING ME IN THE HOLE OF 12000 DOLLARS I DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY PLUS COURT FEES & FINES FOR A CAR THAT I DON'T WANT IN THE FIRST PLACE I'M AM NOW ASKING FOR 100,000 DOLLARS OR MORE FOR MY TIMES & TROUBLE PROBLEM & PAIN THIS HAS CAUSED ON MY LIFE I'M CAR LESS MONEY LESS & EVERYTHING WAITING ON FORD TO RESPOND PLEASE HELP MY CAR BEING SITTING FOR SO LONG IT DON'T EVEN WANNA START NOW I LOVE FORD BUT DO FORD LOVE ME...
