While driving on interstate 271/480 my check engine light started flashing and my car suddenly died putting me in harms way as I tried navigating 3 lanes to get to the berm. It was towed to 2 different Lincoln dealerships where they both confirmed the engine lost compression and would need a full replacement. This vehicle is only a 2017 and 100K miles and shouldn't have total engine failure at that age. I read articles on NHTSA investigating Ford engines and feel this may have a similar engine issue and is worth investigating. Please let me know how I can assist.

- #11528575June 23, 2023SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
The contact owns a 2017 Lincoln MKX. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed with the brake pedal depressed to the floorboard, the vehicle failed to come to a complete stop. The contact stated that the brake pedal had to be manually raised to the normal upright position. Upon visual inspection, the contact observed brake fluid leaking from the rear brake lines underneath the vehicle. The brake fluid warning light was illuminated prior to the failure. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who determined that the passenger’s side rear brake hose had ruptured. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure later occurred on the driver’s side rear brake hose. After investigating the failure, the contact related it to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V469000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 70,000.

Lug nuts are swollen and almost impossible to remove. I could not change a flat tire. Firestone insisted that I needed to replace the lug nuts. Apparently this is a known Ford/Lincoln problem.

Vehicle Leased for 36 months December, 2016. 3 miles on it. At end of lease then purchased the vehicle with a Lincoln Premier Warranty. June 2021 the passenger side dashboard began to lift from its mounting and bubbling up and sort of waffeling across the top of the dashboard then migrating toward the Airbag assembly. Complaint made to Lincoln June 2021. Instructed to take it to a local Lincoln Dealer. Dealer indicated repair would cost some 5 to 6 thousand dollars and that it was not covered under any warranty. Current vehicle mileage: 17,200. Making things worse is that the Airbag is integral to the dashboard. Further lifting and/or peeling off would necessarily present a serious safety and possibly functional hazard, let alone cosmetic features. This is a luxury SUV (Lincoln MKX Black Label) costing approximately 75 thousand dollars, by no means Chump Change. A verbal complaint to Lincoln Customer Service late August 2021. It was indicated this item was NOT covered under warranty and be a total cost to the owner. Not good enough! My position is that is was a manufacturing defect. This whole issue was covered in a certified letter to Lincoln Customer Service September 15, 2021; as yet no reply or resolution from Lincoln.

- #11361482September 28, 2020ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEED'S THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WITH NO THROTTLE RESPONSE OR ACCELERATION. THE ONLY OPTION IS TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AT THAT POINT THE ENGINE IS AT A VERY SLOW AND ROUGH IDLE WITH THE ORANGE SERVICE WRENCH AND WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ACROSS THE DASH. TO REGAIN A THROTTLE RESPONSE, THE OPERATOR MUST TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART IT, THIS RESETS SOMETHING FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THIS IS THE FIFTH TIME THAT THE VEHICLE HAS SHUT DOWN DURING NORMAL TRAVEL AND IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER WITH NO CODES FOUND AND NO SOLUTION. I NOW CONSIDER THIS VEHICLE TO BE VERY UNSAFE AFTER HAVING THIS FAILURE WHILE BEING IN THE LEFT LANE PASSING A TRACTOR TRAILER TRUCK.
