2021 LINCOLN NAUTILUS- Jackson, TN
Recall 24S55/24V635 was issued in October 2024, the issue with intake valves was discovered prior to October 2021. My car was manufactured in July 2021 within the time of inefficient intake valves. The problem continues to exist as there is no remedy. No remedy and no problem dealer won't look at the car, (even with a clicking noise) I don't drive it with concern my engine will quit in the middle of the road and I could be 500 miles from home. It actually has to stop dead in the middle of the road to be looked at. I can't trade it because it's under recall. It's a catch 22. Why can't these vehicles be taken in and tested to see if the intake valves will crack. Consumer safety should be all that is concerned with, not the bottom line. Shame on Ford/Lincoln for hesitation and NHTSA for allowing it.

2015 LINCOLN MKC- FARMINGDALE, NY
This complaint actually encompasses 3 of my Ford/Lincoln vehicles. I cared for the other 2 on my own. Every lug nut needs to be repaired before I can replace my questionable safe tires! This is a manufacturer defect! 3 vehicle needing every lug nut replaced is a joke!! The 'word' is that they are swollen!!! Absolutely nothing that I am responsible for. Please investigate. This is a scam and enormous injustice. I think I replace 1 lug nut in my prior 40 years of driving and was because it was broken!!!!

THE FRONT RIGHT DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE. THE DOOR SWINGS OPEN AND DOES NOT LATCH CREATING A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE PASSENGER RIDING IN THE FRONT SEAT.

THIS PROBLEM DID OCCUR EARLIER BUT WE WERE ABLE TO CORRECT IT BY CLICKING THE LOCK. THAT IS NO LONGER WORKING FOR US, SO WE TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS.

2018 LINCOLN MKZ- West Palm Beach, FL
I own a 2018 Lincoln MKZ. The vehicle Engine overheating warnings came up, and I took the car to the dealership. They informed that the Lincoln MKZ vehicle had a frequent problem with coolant leaking into the engine due to faulty power train assembly. The dealer has seen and repaired hundreds of vehicles with this problem. Lincoln company denies responsibility for this manufacturing defect. The vehicle is only 7 years 3 months and 30 days old with 67914 miles used by single owner. A reputed company like Lincoln should be held responsible for manufacturing and marketing vehicles where the power train and engine fails on a fairly new vehicle.
