THE WIPER AND WASHERS DO NOT OPERATE AS INTENDED. OPERATION IS SPORADIC. WASHERS DO NOT RESPOND TO THE CONTROL. THEY TURN ON BY THEMSELVES, USUALLY AFTER STARTING THE CAR AND WILL EMPTY THE WASHER FLUID RESERVOIR. THE WIPERS DO NOT RESPOND TO THE CONTROLS. THEY TOO MAY TURN ON AT ANYTIME ON THEIR OWN. BUT THEY DO NOT TURN ON WHEN YOU OPERATE THE SWITCH TO TURN THEM ON. THESE OCCURRENCES HAPPEN REGARDLESS OF THE CAR BEING IN PARK OR IN GEAR. AFTER 2 WEEKS IN THE DEALERSHIP, THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN REPLACING VARIOUS PARTS, TRIAL AND ERROR, TO NO AVAIL.

MY 2013 MKS IS STALLING WHILING DRIVING NUMEROUS TIMES, ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT A FEW DAYS AGO. THERE IS A RECALL ON 2013 MKS FUEL MODULE BECAUSE IT CUTS OUT WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER, AFTER CALLING LINCOLN I AM TOLD THAT MY LINCOLN MKS 2013 IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. LINCOLN REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MY 2013 MKS IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE WHERE ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING. BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. I ORIGINALLY TOOK THE CAR OR MY MECHANIC BECAUSE I NEEDED IT LOOKED AT RIGHT AWAY AS IT'S EXTREMELY UNSAFE. MY MECHANIC ALERTED ME TO THE RECALL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW LINCOLN THINKS MY CAR DOES NOT APPLY TO RECALL.

I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM LINCOLN IN EARLY 2020 FOR A RECALL ON REAR SUSPENSION TOW LINKS. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND WILL HAVE THEM AT THE END OF THE YEAR. I CALLED THEM IN OCTOBER AND THEY STILL SAYING NO PARTS, YET THE I CALLED THE PARTS DEPARTMENT AND THEY HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE IF YOU WANA BUY IT YOURSELF. I DRIVE THIS CAR IN LIMOUSINE SERVICE AND THIS IS SUCH A SAFETY CONCERN NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT FOR THE PASSENGER SITTING IN THE BACK. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE AT FORD DEALERSHIPS SUCKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 LINCOLN MKT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V072000 (SUSPENSION) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

AC ON RIGHT SIDE STOPPED WORKING, RIGHT DOOR STOP LOCKING AND LATER THE LEFT DOOR STOPPED LOCKING.

I LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF STEERING OF MY LINCOLN WHILE DRIVING ( NO STEERING WHATSOEVER) AND FORTUNATELY THE DIRECTION OF THE CAR WAS HEADING TOWARD THE SHOULDER OF THE TURNPIKE. AND I GOT OFF THE ROAD ONTO SHOULDER. SCARY!! THIS CAR WAS RECALLED TWICE FOR THE STEERING SHAFT AND WAS TO HAVE BEEN REPAIRED. OR WAS IT!?? THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR ACCIDENT, WITH LOSS OF STEERING!! FORD NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THIS INCIDENT AND COVER THE COST OF REPAIRS!! HOW MANY OTHERS WITH LINCOLN TOWNCARS HAVE CRASHED WITH LOSS OF STEERING AND NEVER LIVED TO TELL THEIR STORY!!

THE BACK UP CAMERA IS ONLY WORKING ABOUT 40% OF THE TIME. MOST TIMES THERE IS JUST A BLACK SCREEN WITH A MESSAGE TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP. THIS STARTED THE DAY I PURCHASED THE 2020 LINCOLN AVAITOR WHICH WAS 10/9/2020 DEALER SAID THERE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A RECALL COMING

ON MY 2020 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL THE BRAKE PEDAL IS ABOUT ONE INCH HIGHER THEN THE GAS PEDAL. ON MOST CARS THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDALS ARE EVEN IN HEIGHT. ON THIS CAR WHEN I MOVE MY FOOT TO STOP THE CAR I MUST LIFT MY FOOT. A FEW TIMES THE SIDE OF MY FOOT HAS HIT THE BRAKE PEDAL CAUSING A MOMENTARY DELAY IN STOPPING.
