Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
We have already had major repairs to this vehicle. Replaced head gasket and torque converter with only 60,938 miles. Fortunately we caught those under warranty but had to spend $1043.28 on a purge valve replacement at 67,795 miles. Lincoln sold us on service and reliability but moved out of the Calallen area shortly after we purchased the vehicle and left us without a loaner vehicle at any of the local Ford dealerships. Closest Lincoln dealership is in San Antonio 2 hrs away. Currently, we have sluggish acceleration with the check engine light code - P0401 - indicating a problem with the EGR valve. We replaced EGR valve and cleared the check engine light but sluggish acceleration remains. We no longer have the time or money to put into this poorly manufactured vehicle as we need this vehicle for transportation to work.

Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
I brought my Lincoln Nautilus to an authorized Lincoln dealership due to a serious transmission issue. The dealer kept the vehicle for four days, diagnosed a potential transmission failure, and told me that the transmission could “blow.” However, they returned the car to me unrepaired and admitted they could not fix it anytime soon. The reason: the dealership has only one transmission technician, and that person is currently working through a backlog of transmission jobs from March. My vehicle — with a known safety risk — was effectively placed at the back of a months-long line, with no estimated repair date. I contacted Lincoln Concierge, who opened a case but informed me there was “nothing they could do.” I now have a car that is unsafe to drive due to a transmission issue that the manufacturer and dealership both acknowledge but are unable to address in a timely or safe manner. This presents a serious safety risk. A transmission failure while driving could result in loss of control, sudden deceleration, or breakdown in active traffic. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this issue as a systemic safety failure — both in terms of the defect itself and Lincoln’s inability to service it promptly.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The component that has failed is the Transmisson. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. We are at risk of being stranded on major highways with small children every day. This vehicle problem has been inspected by both the dealer and two independent service centers. There was one symptom noted that behaved like there may have been water in the gasoline tank. After several attempts to solve the problem, including a Tune-up, we began to see symbols that suggested a more severe problem. These symptoms began the Spring of 2024. There are still warning lamps, messages and frightening symptoms that have resulted from this system failure. I LOVE my vehicle. Imagine my disappointment to learn that many FORD vehicles are under a "silent recall" for such repair that the company is well aware of, yet you sold me this vehicle anyway. Please notify me that you will replace the Transmission or give me full trade in value toward a 2025 Lincoln Nautilus. Our family has been a FORD family for many years. We'd like to remain. What can you do? Thank you for your careful consideration.

I purchased my vehicle in October 2024, and on Jan 2025 I begin experiencing jerking, misfiring, car not accelerating and unable to reverse. I reached out to multiple car dealers and they were unable to diagnose the problem. Today, January 21st I took my vehicle of less than a year to Ourisman Lincoln and was informed I needed to replace my 2019 Lincoln Transmission. This is devastating, as I’m unable to afford 9K dollar repair on a vehicle with only 59K miles.

I purchased my vehicle in October 2024, and on Jan 2025 I begin experiencing jerking, misfiring, car not accelerating and unable to reverse. I reached out to multiple car dealers and they were unable to diagnose the problem. Today, January 21st I took my vehicle of less than a year to Ourisman Lincoln and was informed I needed to replace my 2019 Lincoln Transmission. This is devastating, as I’m unable to afford 9K dollar repair on a vehicle with only 59K miles.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
Reported to Lincoln over a year ago about DEATH WOBBLE on this vehicle. Have taken to 3 dealerships to have checked out and have not found anything. BUT IT IS STILL HAPPENNING. Have suggested to have an engineer from the company to ride along. Not happening. The keep closing the case. September of last year we were driving through Richmond, Virginia on our way to Florida and, it went into the DEATH WOBBLE at 65mph. Shook so bad it snapped my front hitch system and could not tow the car and had to be trailer towed to a dealership. There are other reports out there on the web of other people having the same issue. Was told at one point it could be my equipment. After it broke my system last September and almost lost the car, my insurance company paid to have car repaired and installed a NEW Blue Ox system and it did it again. This time at slower speed and I was able to control. Told ALL DEALERSHIPS AND LINCOLN howitzer is happening and steering is not going back to zero after I make a turn or hit a bump. No reaction. One dealership told me I should not be towing that car, but the car is set up to be towed, according to owners manual. Repair documentation is with Lincoln and insurance company, with all reports. Have a date of September of last year because that was the big one, but started August of 2023, March of 2024, August of 2024 2 times. Each time reported to Lincoln and taken to shop. Could have been a serious accident if I didn't control the motorhome and car.
