severe NHTSA 20V470000 10/08/2020
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2020 Lincoln Corsair vehicles
A fractured rear coil spring can affect vehicle handling. Additionally, a broken rear coil spring may separate from the vehicle and potentially become a road hazard. Either scenario can increase the risk of a crash.
Fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will inspect for proper clearance between the toe link bracket and coil spring. If necessary, the toe link bracket edge will be trimmed according to the service procedure and a new coil spring will be installed, free of charge. The recall began November 4, 2020. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 20S41.

Is an extended warranty worth it on a 2020 Lincoln Corsair?
Math is straightforward: a quality service contract runs $1,800–3,500 over 3 years. With 55 complaints on file and the costliest repair averaging $850, one major failure more than pays for it. The catch is reading the contract — many providers exclude wear items and require pre-authorization, so cheaper plans aren't always better value.
