Takata recall. My car was manufactured at the end of 2010 and is now six years old. I live in florida and the car has been in florida since new in conditions of high heat and humidity. With this recall issued in june 2016, I still have no word from Lincoln or Ford motor company on when this will be fixed. Please assist. Updated 11/06/2017*js

Received legal notice for owners of vehicles with takata airbag inflator recall. Local Ford dealer informed me that the replacement part is not available.

Takata recall. I received a notice about this over a year and a half ago and still have no resolution. The dealer tells me there is no replacement and that I am driving a dangerous vehicle that could kill me and my passengers.

Takata recall I have got notice that the passenger airbag is dangerously defective and must be replaced., and I should "contact your nearest dealership immediately to schedule a free repair". My local dealer (santa monica Ford) does not have the parts, and can not say when they will be available. The notice from tk holdings implies that all repairs should be completed by 27 december. When will the parts be available?

I purchased this car new in jan 2011. Intermittently, the entire sound system stops working (radio, cd player, and navigation system). This means that if, the driver has engaged the navigation system relying on the voice instructions which suddenly do not work, he/she must then look at the small screen for upcoming turns and other information more frequently than when the voice instructions are working. It goes without saying that taking ones eyes off the road to examine the screen information is unsafe. The dealer (ed howard Lincoln in sarasota fl) has replaced the "audio control module" twice: in nov 2014 and in dec 2017. This last repair order mentions "computer tests for code, u1214".

The passenger side door could not be opened from the inside. Only the outside door handle could open it successfully. The dealer has ordered parts for a repair. He indicated that there is no recall on this issue, although I recall a notification about door problems. Several years ago the left driver's side door had the same problem and required a dealer fix. This apparent defect in door design poses a potentially serious safety risk if an occupant needs to exit the vehicle in an emergency. It seems highly unlikely that both doors would malfunction (at different times) if there was not some inherent design defect. In both instances the inability to exit the vehicle via the usual inside door mechanism occurred when the vehicle was parked

I was traveling down a hill that ends with a stoplight on a backroad in the city. The light turned red, I applied my brakes and my foot went to the floor with no brake pressure. I was able to pull over and use my emergency brake to stop me. There was no fluids visible.

2011 Lincoln mkz all four tires failed due to cracks in the sidewalls. *mw

I own a Lincoln mkz hybrid (2011). I have what I consider a safety failure/hazard. The driver's side door lock/latch failed and I have been unable to open the door from the inside. I have to open the window and open the door by way of the outside handle. In an emergency, if the electrical system was inoperable, a driver would be trapped in the vehicle because the windows would not open and the seat could not move back, thus, potentially trapping a driver. *tr

Car in question: 2011 Lincoln mkz hybrid, 163,287 km (101,484 miles). Driving on a city street all of the sudden warning lights come on: ABS, traction control, giant wrench, p/brake light, service advancetrac. Brake pedal all the way to the floor, I blew a stop sign, as car was slowing down, but than just rolled thru the intersection. Had to use a parking brake to come to a complete stop when I was looking for a safe spot to pull over. Had to replace hydraulic control module and ABS module.

Car in question: 2011 Lincoln mkz hybrid, 90,379 miles driving on a highway, wrench light comes on, check engine light comes on, no power from the engine when applying a throttle. Due to a vehicle being a hybrid, coast on battery power to a shoulder. Throttle body had to be replaced. There was a recall for a Ford fusion and a mercury milan for the same problem, but no recall for a Lincoln mkz and no recall for a hybrid. Although they use exactly the same part number for a throttle body.
