ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
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.

STRUCTURE:BODY
1.) FRONT BUMPER COVER DEVELOPED A BULGE (CAME A LOOSE) JUNE 2016 ON RIGHT FRONT SIDE BECAUSE THE BUMPER TABS ARE TOO THIN OR FLIMSY AND WILL NOT HOLD BUMPER COVER UNDERNEATH THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY PROPERLY. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT BY THE LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO REPAIR MY CAR BUMPER FOR ONE WHOLE YEAR. THE CAR DEALERSHIP THEY SENT ME TO CANNOT FIX THIS BUMPER BECAUSE IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, THEY ACTUALLY MAKE THE BULGE ON BUMPER WORSE. LINCOLN KNOWS THE BUMPER COVER IS DEFECTIVE AND HAS FAILED TO COME UP WITH A FIX THAT WILL LAST. THIS IS POOR WORKMANSHIP BY LINCOLN. CAR WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY. I WANT LINCOLN TO FIX MY CAR PROPERLY OR GIVE ME ANOTHER CAR OF EQUAL VALUE. 2.) BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT FRONT DOOR EXTERIOR BOTTOM BLACK PLASTIC DOOR PANELS WITH CHROME INSERTS HAVE COME LOOSE AND SHAKE WHEN OPENING OR CLOSING DOORS. THIS IS POOR WORKMANSHIP BY LINCOLN. CAR WAS STATIONARY AND IN MY DRIVEWAY.

SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN
MY 2007 LINCOLN MKX IS SUDDENLY DECELERATING AND STOPPING OR FREEZING UP WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM STARTED AFTER PREMIER FORD LINCOLN SERVICE REPAIRED POWER BRAKES BOOSTER. I MADE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS TO CAR MAKER AND REPAIRS SHOP. PREMIER SHOP APPEAR UNSURE OF PROBLEM AND OFFERED EXPENSIVE SOLUTIONS TO FORCE NEW CAR PURCHASE. I BELIEVE LINCOLN IS AWARE OF PROBLEM AND REFUSES TO ISSUE RECALL.

STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN 2013 AND 3 OF 4 DOOR SENSORS HAVE MALFUNCTIONED. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON SO MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS CONCERN AS I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN AS PASSENGERS, ALSO GOD FORBID I AM IN A SITUATION WHERE I NEED TO LOCK MYSELF IN MY CAR FOR SOME REASON; I AM SCREWED! THE ALARM CONSTANTLY GOES OFF IF I LOCK/ARM THE ALARM OR AND LOCK DOORS BECAUSE OF THE DOOR SENSORS. THE DOME LIGHT ILLUMINATES AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING, VERY ANNOYING WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE IN MY OPINION. WHEN THE FIRST SENSOR STARTED ACTING UP I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY QUOTED ME $420! AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OVER $1200 TO REPAIR FAULTY DOOR SENSORS ON A VEHICLE THAT IS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD. I WAS SIMPLY TOLD BY THE FORD DEALER THAT I SHOULD HAVE PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THAT THE ISSUE IS NOT COVERED UNDER A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. AS A PARENT WITH TWO YOUNG CHILDREN I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THAT NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK MY DOORS WHILE DRIVING IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING ONLINE MANY FORD AND LINCOLN MODEL CARS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. SOMEONE NEEDS TO HOLD FORD/LINCOLN ACCOUNTABLE AND MAKE THEM FIX THIS ISSUE AT NO CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER. I ALREADY PAID THEM A HEFTY PRICE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE LESS THAN 5 YEARS AGO. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON ALL OF THESE MECHANISMS SHOULD BE FAILING OR ALREADY FAILED IN SUCH A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!! * 11/01/2015 IS THE APPROXIMATE DATE WHEN SYMPTOMS/ISSUES FIRST BEGAN.
