LINCOLN Complaints

CAR DOOR OPENED IN TRAFFIC WITH BABY IN CARSEAT, THREW THE CAR IN PARK. DOOR LATCH BROKE.

I WAS GOING NORTH ON COLLIER AVENUE IN NAPLES, FLORIDA STOPPED AT THE INTERSECTION WITH DAVIS AVENUE AT 3 PM WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THERE WAS UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. I JAMMED DOWN HARD ON THE BRAKE AND SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE MOTOR REVED UP HARD FOR A SHORT TIME, THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, THE CARS AHEAD PULLED FORWARD, I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, AND THE CAR AND ACCELERATOR RETURNED TO NORMAL AND I PROCEEDED FORWARD. EVERYTHING RETURNED TO NORMAL. I AM FAMILIAR WITH UNINTENDED ACCELERATION BECAUSE I EXPERIENCED IT PREVIOUSLY IN MY 1995 (NOT POSITIVE OF EXACT YEAR) AUDI.

HYDRAULIC STRUTS (LIFT SUPPORT) FOR BOTH FRONT HOOD AND POWER LIFTGATE COMPLETELY FAIL AND CANNOT STAY OPEN.

RUNNING BOARD ON DRIVER SIDE DOES NOT RETRACT AFTER CLOSING THE DOORS. IT REMAINS DEPLOYED. HAVE TO USE MY FOOT TO ASSIST IT TO CLOSE.....OFTEN. TRIED USING WD-40 TO LUBRICATE THE HINGES BUT THIS ONLY SERVES AS A TEMPORARY FIX. ISSUES RETURNS SHORTLY THEREAFTER.

A GAS TYPE ODOR ENTERS CABIN OF VEHICLE. I BELIEVE IT TO BE CARBON MONOXIDE. I OFTEN HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS EVEN IN COLD WINTER WEATHER TO PREVENT CARBON MONOXIDE FROM OVERTAKING THE CABIN WHEN THE HEATING SYSTEM IS ON.

"TAKATA RECALL" - SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 16S26/NHTSA RECALL 16V-384 FIRST NOTICE LETTER DATED JULY, 2016 - SECOND NOTICE LETTER DATED DECEMBER, 2017 HOW LONG BEFORE THIS HAZARD AIRBAG IS REPLACED? WAITING OVER A YEAR FOR A REPLACEMENT OF THIS DANGEROUS AIRBAG IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE POTENTIAL OF RISK OF DEATH/INJURY IS UNACCEPTABLE. I CALLED FORD AND WAS TOLD BY THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. THAT SHE "FEELS ITS SAFE", HOWEVER, HER "FEELING" ITS SAFE FOR MY FAMILY TO RIDE IN THIS CAR WITH THIS AIRBAG UNDER RECALL IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE SAFETY AND WELL-BEING OF MYSELF AND MY LOVED ONES. SHE DID NOT "GUARANTEE" IT WAS SAFE. HAVING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE AND WHAT COULD HAPPEN SHOULD IT DEPLOY IS CAUSING ME A GREAT DEAL OF STRESS EVERY TIME I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AND/OR HAVE MY BELOVED FAMILY RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE. AND, I AM GROWING WEARY AND AGITATED WITH THE EXCESSIVELY LONG WAIT FOR A REPLACEMENT AIRBAG. WHAT ACTION IS BEING DONE TO EXPEDITE THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS IN AFFECTED VEHICLES? HOW MUCH LONGER MUST ONE WAIT FOR THIS TO BE RESOLVED? PLEASE LET ME KNOW SOMETHING REGARDING A TIMELINE FOR RESOLUTION/REPLACEMENT. I WANT THIS AIRBAG REPLACED ASAP. THANKS
