POWER TRAIN
At around 125,000, my car developed a shudder at switching gears. Ford has previously identified a problem with my car, which was manufactured before XXX, and purchased on or around XXX. They have since sent out a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB25-2154). No diagnostic codes are identified for the car, but since my car's extended warranty expired at 100,000 miles, I have a potentially dangerous car, where the torque converter may explode within the transmission and cause catastrophic failure. I drive XXX daily between [XXX], and [XXX], which is one of the most dangerous sections of the road. This problem is on top of 3 recalls for the rear camera.

AIR BAGS
On February 5, 2026, the vehicle was involved in an accident in which the driver side was struck by another vehicle as it went through an intersection. The other vehicle was going approximately 40 mph when it impacted my vehicle. The driver side was impacted hard enough that the door would not open, yet none of the airbags went off. When the vehicle was towed to a collision repair center, the owner upon completing an estimate said he believed the airbags had malfunctioned, as the side airbags definitely should have gone off, and potentially the front ones should have, too. The vehicle is currently still at the collision center, but insurance has determined it to be a total loss and will be taking possession at some point in the near future.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
My 2022 Lincoln Corsair has an open NHTSA recall (25V789 / Ford 25SC4) for a high-voltage battery cell internal short circuit that can cause sudden loss of motive power. There is currently NO remedy available. Before this recall was issued, my vehicle already lost power while I was driving on the highway, creating an immediate crash risk. This confirms the defect is active in my vehicle. In addition to the recall, the vehicle has experienced multiple major failures including: a long block engine replacement, HV battery program involvement, electrical system issues, axle/drivetrain repairs, and multiple CSP campaigns. These failures show a repeated pattern of serious defects. Lincoln Customer Relations and my dealership have stated they “cannot do anything” because there is no remedy, and told me I must continue driving the vehicle despite the documented highway shutdown. I am extremely concerned for my safety because the recall states that loss of power increases the risk of a crash, and I have already experienced this. I am filing this complaint because the vehicle is unsafe to operate, has an active safety defect with no available repair, and I have not been offered a safe resolution by Lincoln. I am requesting NHTSA review and investigation. VIN: [XXX] Mileage: ~57,200 INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SERVICE BRAKES
Not often, but at least 1-2 times a year at slow speeds, the brakes fail to function. The pedal feels odd, and unresponsive usually under 5mph parking lot type speeds. Have to place car in park in order for it to stop. Had to dealer when I first got it almost 3yrs ago but they were unable ro duplicate. Restarting the car resolved issue for the instance and it could be a year before it happens again. It’s scary, Google search brings this issue right up with a lot of complaints. This sounds like a future recall.

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
While driving on [XXX] I was in traffic, Car ahead of me was 2 Car lengths ahead, emergency Brake slammed on! I had put my foot lightly on brake to slow down to keep safe distance! We were violently thrown forward( unexpected stoppage) . Car in back had to slam on its brakes and swerve off Road to keep from hitting us! This has happened about 4 times. I have taken Car to dealer and they keep saying there is nothing wrong with the Car! The Service guy who I am assigned to told me to cut off the Braking system. If it’s not safe why do the keep it on the Car and sell it! I am afraid to drive the Car for fear I will be killed or injure somebody else! The Service dept does not note what I brought Car in for on my service history, this is deceptive record keeping! Claiming I brought Car in for other services, when I clearly complained about the Braking problem! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
