I AM HAVING CONTINUOUS PROBLEMS WITH MY 2006 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR. FOR A VEHICLE OF THIS QUALITY, I NEVER DREAM OF SO MANY PROBLEM. I HAD MY SUSPENSION SYSTEM FIX LAST YEAR AT THE DEALER. 1 YEAR HAS PASS NOW IT IS GONE OUT AGAIN. I HAD MY CATALYST CONVERTER FIX AT THE DEALER ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. 1 YEAR LATER THEY ARE GONE OUT AGAIN. NOW I AM RIDING AROUND WITH A BOUNCING NAVIGATOR AND A SLUGGIST RUNNING NAVIGATOR WITH PLENTY OF FUMES. I JUST DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS FOR CONTINUOUS REPAIRS FOR THE SAME SERVICE. DO THE MECHANICS KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING? I AM REALLY FRUSTRATED WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THE SERVICE I HAVE RECEIVED. BOUNCING AROUND IN A 40,000 + VEHICLE IS EMBARRASSING. PLEASE HELP. I HAVE TO BUM A RIDE AT TIME. I HAVE TO TRAVEL , A LOT AND RENT A CAR. THIS IS GETTING OLD AND EXPENSIVE. THE DEALER WANT FIX IT BECAUSE THEY SAY IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY, EVENTHOUGH I HAVE PAID TO HAVE IT FIXED BEFORE. THIS IS NOT COSTUMER SERVICE. HELP! *TR

CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN BUILT WITH AN INCORRECTLY MANUFACTURED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION PARKING PAWL GUIDE PLATE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS COULD CAUSE THE PARKING LOCK SYSTEM NOT TO ENGAGE, AFTER THE TRANSMISSION IS PLACED IN THE PARK ("P") POSITION. IF THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON AN INCLINE, AND THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT ENGAGED, THIS COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE ROLLAWAY CONDITION.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPAIR AND REPLACE THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION GUIDE PLATE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 18, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT LINCOLN AT 1-800-248-0186.
ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, PASSENGER CARS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR MAY HAVE BEEN PRODUCED WITHOUT GREASE BEING APPLIED TO THE OUTPUT SHAFT GEAR.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: AFTER A PERIOD OF CONTINUOUS USE ON THE HIGH SPEED SETTING, LACK OF GREASE ON THE OUTPUT SHAFT GEAR MAY CAUSE THE GEAR TO DISTORT OR FRACTURE DURING OPERATION RESULTING IN A LOSS OF WIPER FUNCTION. INOPERATIVE WIPERS UNDER INCLEMENT WEATHER CONDITIONS COULD CAUSE A CRASH DUE TO IMPAIRED VISIBILITY.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE WIPER MOTOR FOR THE PRESENCE OF GREASE AND GREASE THE WIPER MOTOR GEARS IF NECESSARY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 22, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673 OR LINCOLN/MERCURY AT 1-800-521-4140.
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE FRONT AND REAR TIRES ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN DAMAGED AT THE CENTER TREAD DURING PRODUCTION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: OVER TIME, THE DAMAGE MAY BE SUFFICIENT TO ALLOW BELT CORROSION ULTIMATELY LEADING TO A TREAD SEPARATION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT ALL FOUR TIRES (TO ENSURE INSPECTION OF THE LEFT HAND SIDE TIRES THAT MAY HAVE BEEN ROTATED TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE) FOR TIRE TREAD DAMAGE AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THE DAMAGED TIRE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 13, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673.
