  Summary

  Some 2017-2018 Lincoln Continental vehicles equipped with easy entry/exit seats may exhibit a concern where the driver seat only moves 1 inch (2.5 cm) during easy entry/exit instead of the full 2 inches (5 cm). This may be due to the software in the driver seat module (DSM). To correct the condition, connect a battery charger and reprogram the DSM using the latest software level of the appropriate Ford diagnostic scan tool. For claiming, use causal part 14C708 and applicable labor operations in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.

  Summary

  Some 2017-2020 Continental vehicles may experience driver seatbelts locking up and difficult to extend. This may be due to the seatbelt retractor contacting the B-pillar sheet metal causing the seat belt retractor to sit on an angle. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to add clearance between the seatbelt retractor and B-pillar sheet metal.

  Summary

  Some 2009-2020 Ford and Lincoln vehicles equipped with turbochargers may exhibit an oil leak from the turbocharger oil supply or return tubes, O-rings or 6.7L pedestal gasket. Although oil may collect on the turbocharger, it is very rare for a turbocharger to leak oil. To isolate the source of the leak, refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-00 General Information > Diagnosis and Testing > Engine > Engine Oil Leaks - Fluorescent Oil Additive Method procedure. When an oil leak is present at a turbocharger oil supply or drain tube, remove the affected oil tube and inspect for damage, and replace the O-ring seals, pedestal gasket or oil tube as required. Refer to WSM, Section 303-04. For claiming, use the affected oil tube or pedestal gasket as the causal part and applicable labor operations in Sections 6 and 9 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.

  Summary

  Some customers may experience a notification in the FordPass and/or LincolnWay apps that indicates their vehicle has entered "deep sleep mode". This mode is enabled due to the vehicle not being started for 14 consecutive days or battery voltage is at/or below 9.5 volts. Some 2020 models will also set a warning if the telematic control unit (TCU) has received an automatic over the air update. The purpose of deep sleep mode is to conserve battery voltage. When deep sleep mode is enabled, the TCU is powered down and all communication with the FordPass and/or LincolnWay apps are disabled. To wake the vehicle from deep sleep mode, manually start the vehicle. More deep sleep mode information can be found in the FordPass or LincolnWay apps under: More > Guides > click in search entry box > type "deep sleep" and click on "Ask".

  Summary

  Some 2017-2020 Continental vehicles built on or before 10-Jan-2020 may exhibit a creak type noise when opening or closing either front door. This may be due to fatigue in the sheet metal of the door in the area of the door check arm. If fatigue is found, a revised door assembly has been released for this concern. The part numbers of these revised door assemblies are GD9Z-5420125-C (left door) and GD9Z-5420124-C (right door).
