2013 Lincoln Mkx

WHEN YOU HIT THE GAS PEDAL YOU LOSE ALL ACCELERATION. YOU HAVE TO DRIFT TO A COMPLETE STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART IT. HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT MULTIPLE TIMES AND ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MPH. THANKFULLY TRAFFIC WAS NOT HEAVY AND I WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR STOPPED AND RESTARTED BEFORE THE POSSIBILITY OF SOMEONE RUNNING INTO US. THERE WAS NO SHOULDER TO PULL OFF ON BECAUSE OF CONSTRUCTION. IT WAS TERRIFYING. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND THERE IS NO WARNING AS TO WHEN. A VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND LINCOLN SEEMS TO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS SO THEY SEND PEOPLE HOME IN THEIR DEFECTIVE VEHICLES BECAUSE AS THEY SAY THEY CAN'T GET THE PROBLEM TO DUPLICATE SO THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND SENT ME HOME NOW TWICE. TRUST ME THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND MANY OTHERS AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD!!!

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT OVER 70 WITH MY WHOLE FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE THE VEHICLE SIMPLY STOPPED RESPONDING AND WENT INTO WHAT I HAVE NOW BEEN INFORMED IS LIMP MODE BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE SURVIVED THIS FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE ON ANOTHER INSTANCE AFTER THAT ANOTHER CAR HIT ME THANKFULLY NO DAMAGE, WHILE DOING SOME RESEARCH I SEE THERE IS A SAFETY CAMPAIGN 13NO3 BUT FOR SOME REASON THIS MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE AND OTHERS LIKE IT HAVE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS GOING TO COST SOMEONE THERE LIFE.

RECALL # 14V393000 IS WITH MAKE, MODEL & YEAR, BUT NOT VIN #. STARTING A MONTH AGO, THE CAR ROLLS WHEN IN PARK ESPECIALLY ON UNEVEN PAVEMENT. SHOULD YOU LOSE POWER, AS HAPPENS WITH THIS PROBLEM GOING 70 MPH, IT WILL RESULT IN DEADLY CRASH. CONTACTED LINCOLN CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE DESIREE WHO REFUSED TO PAY FOR INSPECTION TO SEE IF HALFSHAFT AND LINKSHAFT ARE THE PROBLEM. CONSIDERING THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF LIFE IN DEADLY ACCIDENT, YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD GLADLY PAY FOR THE INSPECTION. I AM SUPPOSE TO PAY $175 FOR THIS. CAN YOU HELP? SHE WOULDN'T EVEN TELL ME WHERE MY CAR WAS MADE. I FOUND IT WAS MADE AT FORD OF CANADA, LTD. AT OAKVILLE PLANT IN 2013.

I PURCHASED THIS 2013 LINCOLN MKX IN OCTOBER OF 2017. IT WAS A USED VEHICLE BUT APPEARED TO BE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. IN APRIL, THE SUNROOF FLIPPED BACK AND CHIPPED THE BACK GLASS OF THE PANORAMIC ROOF. CONSIDERING THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM REGARDING FORD AND THEIR SUNROOFS, MY INSURANCE REFUSES TO COVER IT. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF 3 AND JUST WANTED SOMETHING NICE FOR ONCE. THE DAMAGE COSTS MORE THAN THE CARS TRADE IN VALUE. I HAVE HAD BAD LUCK WITH FORD IN THE PAST. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER.

WIFE WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON MARCH 15, 2018, AROUND 2 PM EST, ON A DIVIDED ROAD AROUND 35 MPH. CLEAR SUNNY DAY WITH NO TRAFFIC AROUND HER. SHE HEARD A VERY LOUD NOISE AND PULLED INTO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED. SHE LOOKED AT THE BODY OF CAR AND TIRES AND DID NOT SEE ANYTHING. SHE CONTINUED TO WORK, AROUND 3 MILES, AND LOOKED AGAIN WHEN SHE ARRIVED. SHE THEN NOTICED THE VISTA GLASS TO THE REAR OF THE SUNROOF HAD IMPLODED. FROM THE INSIDE IT WAS ALL SHATTERED BUT IN TACK. FROM THE OUTSIDE THERE WERE VISIBLE CRACKS. SEE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE PHOTO. WHEN WE CALLED LINCOLN TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS OR ANY KNOWN ISSUES, THEY SAID NO AND TO CALL INSURANCE SINCE GLASS IS NOT COVERED. WHEN WE RESEARCHED ON THE WEB, WE SAW A NUMBER OF POSTINGS FOR SIMILAR IMPLOSIONS ON LINCOLN MODELS AND FORD EDGE. POSTINGS SAID TO FILE A COMPLAINT FOR A RECALL.
