LINCOLN Complaints

HAVE AIR BAG RECALL STILL NOT FIXED BEEN OVER 1 YEAR DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THEY ARE WAITING PARTS.

TAKATA RECALL. RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE JULY 2016. CONTACTED DEALER ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO REMEDY THE SITUATION TO NO AVAIL. ON MY THIRD CALL I WAS TOLD THE MANUFACTURER WAS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO UNTIL SUCH TIME FORD MOTOR CO. COMES UP WITH A SOLUTION.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY IN MARCH, 2017. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP IN CHATHAM AND THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED A NOTICE OR REPLACEMENT PART FROM LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY, AS OF NOV., 2017. I WANT TO GET THIS AIRBAG REPLACED, BUT THE FORD DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THEY CAN'T GET THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PART.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED AS PART OF THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 17S01 / NHTSA RECALL 17V-024. THE DEALERS HAVE NO PARTS TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT AND DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL HAVE PARTS. THE DEADLINE FOR A FIX WAS DECEMBER 31, 2017. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAG SUPPLIER HAS FILED BANKRUPTCY - I THINK THE AUTO MAKER SHOULD STILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THE DEFECT IMMEDIATELY.

ASSISTING A FRIEND WITH THIS. THE LEFT REAR AXLE HAS BROKEN AND DAMAGED THE BRAKES AND ABS SENSOR. HE HAD DRIVEN THE VEHICLE TO WORK AND PARKED IT. AFTER HIS SHIFT ENDED, HE STARTED THE VEHICLE, SHIFTED INTO GEAR AND FOUND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE & WAS MAKING NOISE. HE HAD IT TOWED TO HIS HOUSE AND ASKED ME TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE. AFTER RAISING THE REAR AXLE, I WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THAT THE LEFT REAR AXLE BEARING HAD WORN THROUGH THE AXLE AND IT BROKE. WHEN I CHECKED THE NHTSA WEBSITE, IT SHOWED IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE REAR AXLE SAFETY RECALL, ALTHOUGH THE CONDITIONS ARE SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS LISTED.

RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL NOTICE. TRIED TO GET APPOINTMENTS WITH EAST CAROLINA AUTO AND TRUCK CENTER, GREENVILLE, NC, FOR THE PAST YEAR OR SO. HAVE TRIED TO GET IT FIXED NUMEROUS TIMES, BUT RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE, "THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS YET."

DURING THE FIRST INCIDENT, I WAS DRIVING AND HEARD A LOUD WHIRLING SOUND THEN SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT THE EXHAUST. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE TURBO CHARGER. THEN I HAD THEM REPLACED THREE MONTHS DOWN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING MY CAR LOST POWER. THE THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND I COULDN'T MOVE THE CAR. I LEFT THE CAR WHERE IT WAS, THEN CAME BACK THE NEXT DAY AND IT DROVE FINE I TOOK IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP IN THE MECHANIC COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEMS AND TODAY WHEN I WENT TO PICK THE CAR UP THE CAR STARTED SMOKING AGAIN NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY TYPE OF SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON.

UNABLE TO PUMP GAS NORMALLY. TANK SPITS FUEL BACK OUT OR SHUTS DOWN PUMP AND THE SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM THE CAR AFTER REFUELING AT TIMES WHEN DRIVING

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THE WEBSITE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW AND IT KEEPS SAYING THAT THERE IS NO FIX YET, WHAT DO I DO?
