Memory seat moves on its own while driving. It also fails to retain memory settings. Has been to dealer multiple times and the seat motor was replaced twice. It's dangerous to drive as you must adjust seat while driving constantly. Electronics system doesn't remember settings forcing you to continually adjust while driving - very distracting. Once the seat pushed me all the way forward onto the dashboard while driving on the freeway.

The seat belts in my vehicle takes two to three times to click and stay, the back seat belt on the passenger side was stuck and could not be worn for about a month after the vehicle was driven from Odessa, Tx to me in Memphis, TN on July 1, 2022. The head rest on the passenger side will not adjust at all. It is still stuck forward and is hard to rest my head against it. The Advanced Driver Assistance Systems has stopped working since I got the truck, the steering wheel use to put the vehicle back in my lane but it does not do that anymore. I'm not sure what the difference is between the lane departure warning and the lane keeping assistance but it seems neither one works. Last, but not least the vehicle has a smell coming from it like something is burning under the hood. This vehicle already has two recalls and I called the dealership in Memphis, TN and spoke with Allison and she told me the parts for these recalls were not in and that I really did not have to get them fixed!!!!! I live in Southaven, Mississippi and have been trying to get rid of this vehicle since February because it is not worth the money and I am having a very hard time getting a decent offer for it so I won't be so much upside down on the next vehicle I choose. This is my first Lincoln and my last!!!! Oh and not to mention, the first recall was December 2022 and I received the mail regarding the recall February 12th or later. One more thing I need to mention, the driver seat hurts to sit in, it's like the seat digs into your thighs. There is lumbar support for your back in the front seats but it feels like seat cushion have an issue with being too hard.

Prior issue 11497970 reported on 12/19/2022. Car stopped without warning in traffic on November 30 and would not start or switch gears to neutral. Towed to Hines Park Lincoln and spent 16 days in the repair shop. It was returned to me on December 15. On December 20, I started the car to drive it for a first test drive around the block. It traveled 2 houses and stopped. After several tries, I got it started and made it to the front of my driveway (blocking the entrance). The car was totally dead. The first tow truck driver could not get it on the flatbed as the wheels were locked. The second truck had rollers to move the car onto the flatbed. My wife will not ride in the car as she does not feel safe. Obviously, if the car stops suddenly on a busy highway or expressway, or any road, it will likely end up in a rearend collision of at least 2 cars. It has a dangerous, safety issue. We don't want the car anymore. Can you do anything to help us?

The car unexpectantly stopped on Nov. 30 and would not start on a residential road close to a traffic light. It totally conked out and nothing worked except for the hazard lights. Cars had to be diverted around us in busy traffic, The tow truck driver could not get it in neutral and had to take something apart on the dashboard console. The dealership worked for days pulling the plugs, cleaning them, replacing them and the car continued to die out. Their Hotline advised them to use carb clean. which got it started. They tested it for 5 miles and delivered it back Dec. 15. It has been parked in our garage ever since as we don't feel safe driving the car at this point. If the problem recurs, especially on the expressway, we would likely die with the car, as well as involving other people. The car is 9 months old with 6000 miles on it. This was not a simple repair and may or may not have permanently solved the problem. With this terrifying experience, we do not feel safe in the car. This is a leased, practically new car with a dangerous problem.
