2008 Lincoln MKZ complaints

MY CAR IS EFFECTED BY THE RECALL, IT LOSSES BRAKES PERIODICALLY AND NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP SOMETIMES. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS TILL THE MANUFACTURER IS ABLE TO FIX IT? THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION...

HPU HAS RECALL ON IT FOR BRAKES. MY HPU FAILED ONCE ALREADY. LINCOLN DEALERSHIP REFERRED ME TO LINCOLN. RECALL IS SOMETIME NEXT QUARTER WHEN THEY HAVE PARTS. LINCOLN WILL NOT REPAIR OR PROVIDE LOANER FOR NOW AND TOLD ME TO DRIVE AT OWN RISK.I WAS APPROACHING A STOP WHEN PROBLEM MANIFESTED ITSELF. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO STOP CAR AND MISS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. REPORTED PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. I DON'T THINK IT RESPONSIBLE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH A KNOWN PROBLEM. IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. DEALERSHIP OPENED SSSC( LINCOLN REPORTING MECHANISM) ON VEHICLE.BRAKE PEDAL WENT SOFT AND TO THE FLOOR BUT EVENTUALLY DID GET IT STOPPED. VEHICLE WONT STOP IN REQUIRED STOPPING DISTANCE AS PER DESIGN AND SUPPLY THEREOF. I AM A VERY EXPERIENCED DRIVER BUT OTHER DRIVERS ARE UNLIKELY TO BE ABLE TO RESPOND APPROPRIATELY. HAD TO WAIT FOR ANSWER FROM OFFICE LOCATED IN INDIA! THIS IS A DELIBERATE UNSAFE ACT BY LINCOLN. WHAT CAN I DO. I AM ON FIXED DISABILITY AND MUST HAVE TRANSPORTATION.

RECALL ON BRAKES, NO REMEDY AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. HAVE TO REPLACE BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK BRAKES AS THEY ARE SLIPPING AND MAKING EXTREMELY LOUD SCRATCHING NOISES. AND I'M NOT WILLING TO KILL MYSELF NOT MY 2 MONTH OLD BECAUSE THEY WON'T BE PREPARED TO FIX THE ISSUE FOR ANOTHER 2 MONTHS. ## VIN PASSED ## [XXX] ## INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

NOTIFIED OF AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL NHTSA 19V-001, SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 19S01 YET, I HAVE ATTEMPTED MANY TIMES TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH PLANET LINCOLN/PLANET FORD IN HUMBLE AND WOODLANDS, TX. WHEN THEY DISCOVER I NEED A LOANER NO APPOINTMENT IS EVER MADE. THEY PROMISE TO CALL BACK WHEN A LOANER IS AVAILABLE AND NEVER DO. FORD AND LINCOLN SEND ME NOTIFICATION REGULARLY THAT THIS NEEDS TO ME TAKEN CARE OF. I HAVE RELATED THE SAME TO THEM. I SUPPOSE THEY THINK THEY WON'T BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MY AIRBAGS, BUT THEY WILL. I HAVE NAMES, DATES, AND CONVERSATIONS DOCUMENTED.

I AM HAVING A REALLY HARD TIME GETTING THIS AIR BAG REPLACED WITH A LOCAL DEALERSHIP THE ONLY DEALERSHIP IN RADIUS. MTN VIEW LINCOLN FORD CHATTANOOGA, TN. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I DRIVE AND I ADVISED THEM I WOULD NEED A LOANER WHILE THIS REPAIR IS BEING DONE. THE FIRST TIME I CALLED WITH A CS REPRESENTATIVE ON THE PHONE THEY ADVISED ME THEY DIDN'T HAVE A PART BUT COULD ORDER IT. I ASKED ABOUT A LOANER THE REP TOLD ME ONLY THE SERVICE MANAGER CAN APPROVE THAT AND I WAS SENT TO HIS DESK WHERE I LEFT A MESSAGE. I DIDN'T RECEIVE A CALL BACK. (THERE IS A GOOGLE REVIEW REGARDING MY EXPERIENCE). AFTER RECEIVING YET ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE LAST WEEK I DREADFULLY ATTEMPTED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THIS FIXED. WHICH WAS TODAY AT 7:45, LAST WEEK I EXPRESSED AGAIN THE NEED FOR A LOANER THE GUY WHO ANSWERED THE PHONE ADVISED ME THEY HAD 40 LOANERS OUT BUT HE CAN SEE WHAT HE CAN DO. TODAY I ARRIVED WAITED 20 MINS AND TODD COMES TO MY VEHICLE I ADVISED THEM WHAT I WAS THERE FOR AND HE STATED THERE ARE NO LOANERS BUT HE WILL GIVE ME A CALL AND UPDATE ME. NO ONE HAS CALLED ME.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING STALL AND TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL SHARPLY TO THE LEFT AND HEARD A BREAKING SOUND. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT WOULD NOT MOVE EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. I FOUND THAT THE FRONT WHEELS WERE BOTH POINTED INWARDS (PIGEON-TOED) A SEVERE AMOUNT. A FLAT-BED TRUCK WAS CALLED TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE REPORT FROM THE FORD DEALER IS THAT AN OUTER TIE-ROD END HAD BROKEN COMPLETELY THROUGH IN WHAT WOULD BE CHARACTERIZED AS A BRITTLE FRACTURE. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THERE WAS A BRIGHT CLEAN BREAK NOT TYPICAL OF A FATIGUE FAILURE OR A DUCTILE FAILURE.

TAKARA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM LINCOLN 3 YEARS AGO AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE, THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE HAS DECREASED AND I CANNOT SELL IT. THEY SHOULD BUY BACK THE CAR AT THE VALUE OF IT 3 YEARS AGO.

ABS ENGAGED ON SNOWY ROAD. NOW, BRAKE PEDAL IS EXTREMELY SOFT/SPONGY...DOES NOT ENGAGE UNTIL PEDAL IS FULLY DEPRESSED. COUNTY ROAD. STRAIGHT-LINE STOP. REPLACED BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER AND PERFORMED FACTORY PRESSURE/SERVICE BLEED. CAUSE IS CERTAIN TO BE THE HISTORICALLY FAULTY ABS HCU/CONTROL MODULE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 LINCOLN MKZ. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO OPEN ALL THE VEHICLE'S DOORS, THE DOOR HANDLES FRACTURED. ALSO, THE REAR LOCKS FAILED TO OPERATE THE DOORS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN ELECTRICAL MOTOR SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

WENT TO STOP IN WINTER CONDITIONS AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. ALMOST REAR ENDED THE CAR AT THE STOP SIGN, HAD TO GO TO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID HITTING THEM. NOW THE ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, AND BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT COME ON AS SOON AS I REACH 15 MPH. I HAVE HAD ALL THE ROTORS, CALIPERS, AND BREAK PADS REPLACED. STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

TIRES CONSTANTLY GOING FLAT BECAUSE OF RIM.I WOULD NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER LINCOLN EVER

TAKATA RECALL.PREVIOUS REPORT NUMBER 11048667. RECEIVED MORE RC NOTICES SINCE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT. ALSO RECEIVED NOTICE OF PART (S) AVAILABILITY. CALLED DEALER JULY 2018 FOR APPOINTMENT AND HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM SINCE.

TAKATA RECALL, THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED WITHOUT ANYTHING TRIGGERING IT WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK. IT SHOWS THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF DUE TO HAVING SOME KIND OF WEIGHT ON THE SEAT. BUT THERE IS NOTHING ON THE SEAT AT ALL WHEN THE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IT IS STILL ON AND STAYED ON. I READ ABOUT THE RECALL FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AND I READ THE THE AIRBAG CAN EXPLODE DURING A CRASH AND THAT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF HAVING AN AIRBAG. IT'S SUPPOSED TO SAVE LIVES AND NOT TAKE THEM AWAY. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS FIXED AND RESOLVED BEFORE WINTER COMES IN FULL EFFECT AND TO AVOID ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS IF AN ACCIDENT DO OCCUR.

BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, VEHICLE INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO STOP AFTER ABS EVENT. 11/10/18-DEALER PERFORMED DIAGNOSTICS INDICATING REAR ROTORS NEED REPLACING, AUTHORIZED REPAIR. 11/10/18 AFTER REPLACING ROTORS DEALER STATES REAR CALIPER ACTION IS ERRATIC, STATES REAR CALIPERS NEED REPLACED DUE TO ERRATIC ACTION. AUTHORIZED REPAIR WITH OEM FORD PARTS, NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL 11/12/18. DEALER VEHEMENTLY DENIES HCU IS THE ISSUE EVEN AFTER I PROPOSE THIS SCENARIO. STATES NOT THE HCU 11/12/18-DEALER CALLED SAID PEDAL IS MUCH BETTER, HOWEVER, ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS OR CODES, HCU IS FAULTY, WANTS ME TO PICK UP CAR. STATES THAT PEDAL TRAVEL RETURNS, BUT MIGHT WANT TO HAVE THE HCU REPLACED. !! DEALER PREVIOUSLY STATED HCU WAS NOT THE ISSUE, THE REAR CALIPERS WERE: DUE TO ERRATIC BEHAVIOR. SERVICE TO THIS POINT TO HAVE COMPONENTS REPLACED, THAT HAVE NOT RESOLVED INITIAL COMPLAINT VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY INVOLVED IN FRONTAL CRASH FROM PREVIOUS OWNER. DETAILS WERE NOT IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE TO ME. WILL BE REQUESTING DEALER ASSISTANCE WITH PART REPLACEMENT IN THIS SCENARIO.

I WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MPH AND STARTED SLOW DONE TO A STOP AND IT FELT LIKE THE CAR JUST WOULDN'T STOP I PUSHED THE PEDAL TO WHAT FELT LIKE THE FLOOR AND NOW TO STOP IT NEEDS TO BE PUSHED ALL THE WAY. IT FEELS UNSAFE. IF I WOULD HAVE HAD A CAR IN FRONT OF ME I WOULD HAVE REAR ENDED THEM.THIS IS A REAL ISSUE AND DANGER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 LINCOLN MKZ. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LIVERMORE FORD LINCOLN (2266 KITTY HAWK RD, LIVERMORE, CA 94551, (925) 294-7700) WHERE IT WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V240000 (AIR BAGS) BUT THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 LINCOLN MKZ. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). THE RECALL NOTICE INDICATED THAT THE PART WAS UNAVAILABLE AND A LOANER VEHICLE WAS AN OPTION; HOWEVER, THE DEALER (SCHUMACHER LINCOLN OF DELRAY, 561-454-1800, LOCATED AT 2102 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, SUITE B, DELRAY BEACH, FL 33483) STATED THAT A LOANER VEHICLE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

BRAKES SPONTANEOUSLY WENT SOFT, DURING TRAVEL (30 MPH?). CHANGED MASTER CYLINDER WHICH SEEMED TO RESOLVE ISSUE. COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER, HAPPENED AGAIN UWHILE IN MOTION. MASTER CYLINDER CHANGED 2ND TIME UNDER WARRANTY. HAPPENED THIRD TIME WITHIN WEEKS TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MPH. THE THIRD TIME, IT HAPPENED UPON APPLICATION OF BRAKES (NOT AGGRESSIVE) WHICH CAUSED ABS ACTIVATION. PULSE WAS FELT IN BRAKE PEDAL AND IMMEDIATELY BRAKES PEDAL WENT SOFT (ALMOST TO FLOOR). PUMPING BRAKE PEDAL FIRMED THE BRAKES. COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, TESTED ABS ON GRAVEL ROAD BY AGGRESSIVE BRAKING, ABS ACTIVATION AND BRAKES WENT SOFT IMMEDIATELY DURING THE ACTION. PUMPING UP BRAKES RESULTED IN FIRMING, AT TOP OF BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL WITHOUT SLOWING VEHICLE THEN INTO SOFT TRAVEL THROUGH 3/4 TRAVEL UNTIL FIRMED AGAIN AT BOTTOM OF TRAVEL. CONCERN IS THAT IN THE EVENT OF EMERGENCY BRAKING WHICH ACTIVATES ABS, TYPICAL BRAKING CHANGES TO 'SOFT PEDAL' (BELIEF OF FAILED BRAKES) AND POTENTIAL FOR PANIC AND RESULTING COLLISION. DEALER TESTED SYSTEM TODAY (10/03/2018) AND COULD NOT DIAGNOSE ANY PROBLEM. NO DASH LIGHT WAS EVER ACTIVATED IN ANY OF THE EVENTS DESCRIBED. NO BRAKE FLUID LEAK DETECTED, NO LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.

WE ARE CONTINUALLY RECEIVING LETTERS ABOUT NOT HAVING THE RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. HOWEVER, WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE IS NO LOANER AVAILABLE OR ARE UNDER A LONG LIST OF OTHER OWNERS WAITING, OR THE PARTS WILL TAKE A FEW DAYS. I TRIED CALLING THE NHTSA HOTLINE AND BOTH TIMES THE CALL WAS DISCONNECTED AFTER PICKUP. THIS IS ALL VERY FRUSTRATING AND SCARY TO HAVE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH A POTENTIAL FATAL DEFECT EVERYDAY AND AT LONG DISTANCES. THERE SHOULD BE AN ALTERNATIVE THROUGH RENTAL CAR BUSINESSES OR INDIVIDUAL INSURANCE TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE DRIVERS.

BREAK PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING. BREAKS WILL WORK BUT VERY SCARY TO DRIVE. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER EACH TIME WITH NO RESOLVE. ALL BREAK, TRACTION CONTROL, EMG BRAKES LIGHTS CAME ON DEALER SAID ITS A HYDROLIC CONTROL UNIT $1500.00. ANOTHER REPAIR STATION HOOKED IT UP AND IT CAME BACK WITH A B1342, OCCUPANT SYSTEM MODULE. I HAD JUST HAD THE AIR BAG FIXED DUE TO RECALL. I WAS TOLD THIS OCCUPANT MODULE WILL CONTROL/MALFUNCTION OTHER AREAS OF THE AUTO.

OUR ABS ACTIVATED ON ICE/SNOW. NOW, MUST PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE CAR TO STOP.

I PURCHASED A LINCOLN MKZ IN 2015 AND IN 2016, I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD ABOUT A RECALL ON MY LINCOLN PASSENGER SIDE FRONTAL AIRBAGS. 2 YEARS LATER AND MONTHLY PHONE CALLS ABOUT REPAIR AND I CONSTANTLY GET THE RUN AROUND THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT IN YET. SOLUTION IS TO NOT PUT PASSENGER UP FRONT, WHICH IS NOT A VIABLE SOLUTION. I EITHER WANT MY CAR REPAIRED OR A REPLACEMENT. I DID NOT BUY A 5 PERSON PREMIUM CAR TO ONLY BE TOLD IT IS NOW A 4 SEATER. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNACCEPTABLE AND I WOULD LIKE HELP WITH WHAT I AM LEGALLY ABLE TO DO.
