TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 LINCOLN MKX. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND HESITATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (HEMSTEAD FORD/LINCOLN LOCATED IN HEMSTEAD, NEW YORK) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE NUMBER ONE INJECTOR WAS MISFIRING AND THE CONNECTOR WIRE WAS REPLACED.

95000 MILES. WENT OVER A SMALL POTHOLE WHILE TAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. USUALLY FIXED ITSELF AFTER A COUPLE HOURS OF DRIVING. THIS TIME IT DID NOT. DROVE OVER 200 MILES WITH THE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR TO STOP. READ ON A FORUM THAT IT IS A BAD AND HYDRAULIC C UNIT AND THAT A TEMP FIX WOULD BE TO DO SEVERAL ABS STOPS ON A LOOSE GRAVEL ROAD. TRIED THAT AND IT WORKED. AFRAID THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND WON'T STOP IN TIME. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. NEED A RECALL. THIS IS HAPPENING IN 2008 FORDS AND LINCOLNS. SAW AT LEAST 200 INSTANCES ON FORUMS. I HAVE A EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT UNLESS IT'S DOING IT WHEN I BRING IT IN THEY WON'T FIX IT
