LINCOLN Complaints

IN COLD WEATHER THE CARS AIR SUSPENSIONS STOPS WORKING AND THE CAR STARTS BOUNCING ALL OVER THE PLACE WHILE DRIVING. THIS TO ME IS DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY ON WHEN OCCURRING ON LONG TRIPS. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT I AM SEEING ALL OVER THE INTERNET.

THEY HAVE NOT REPAIRED MY AIRBAG, EVERY TIME I CALL TO GET IT REPAIRED THEY TELL ME THE AIRBAGS ARE ON BACK ORDER.

USB CHARGING AND SNYC CONNECTION STATION AT THE BOTTOM OF CONSOLE CAUGHT FIRE AND WITHIN A COUPLE OF MINUTES THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. BARELY ESCAPED WITH MY LIFE.

I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ON MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG NEARLY ONE YEAR AGO. TO DATE, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THIS AIRBAG WILL BE REPLACED. I HAVE NOT ALLOWED A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT OF MY CAR THIS PAST YEAR. I HAVE CONTACTED LINCOLN SEVERAL TIMES ASKING WHEN MY AIRBAG WILL BE REPLACED TO NO AVAIL. HELP!

I HAVE A LINCOLN AVIATOR 2003, IT HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND IT SEEMS LIKE IT DOESN'T SHIFT GEARS WHEN IT'S SUPPOSED TOO. THOS HAPPENS WHEN I PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR. IS ANYONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM?

MY WIFE GOT TO THE MALL AND TRIED TO GET OUT OF THE CAR AND THE DOOR WOULD NOT UNLATCH. SHE CALLED ME FRANTIC ASKING WHAT TO DO. SHE DID NOT DARE ASK A STRANGER, SO I TOLD HER TO WAIT AND I WOULD BE RIGHT THERE. SHE WAS VERY UPSET BY THE TIME I GOT THERE.-20 MIN. THE DOOR OPENED NORMALLY FROM THE OUTSIDE. LATER I TOOK THE DOOR APART AND FOUND THAT A PLASTIC PART OF THE HANDLE THAT TRANSFERS MOTION TO THE DOOR LATCH HAD BROKEN. THIS SEEMS LIKE A POOR DESIGN AND/ OR A POOR CHOICE OF MATERIAL. IN A DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCE OR LOCATION THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A LIFE THREATENING EVENT. I BELIEVE THE DESIGN OR MATERIAL SHOULD BE CHANGED BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR WORSE KILLED.

THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE 2014. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I LIVED IN OHIO ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD AS WELL AS THE DOME LIGHT WHILE I'M DRIVING STAYS ON STATING THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHICH KEEPS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING AND THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS ALSO OCCURS WHILE IT'S PARK AND IT SOMETIMES COMES ON BY ITSELF WHICH CAUSES THE ALARM TO GO OFF. THE DEALERSHIPS ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE ON THESE VEHICLES AND ARE WAITING FOR FORD/LINCOLN TO TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTION.

WHEN YOU PUT THE GEAR SHIFT IN PARK AND TURN THE SUV OFF, THE WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON THE DASHBOARD STATING THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN PARK. YOU HAVE TO EITHER RESTART THE SUV AND TAKE IT OUT OF PARK A FEW TIMES OR DO NOT RESTART AND HIT THE BUTTON ON THE SHIFTER A FEW TIMES TO GET THE LIGHT TO TURN OFF. THIS IS A REOCCURRING ISSUE THAT HAS OCCURRED SINCE 2015.
