| 2007 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | I WAS DRIVING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT SUDDENLY ANXIOUS ABOUT THE GAS PEDAL BECAUSE HOWEVER HARD I PRESSED IT, THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE AHEAD. I MANAGED TO GET ONTO THE MAIN ROAD WITH THE EMERGENCY WRENCH COMING UP ALONG WITH THE DRIVER AIRBAG AND ZERO MILEAGE FOR THE CAR INDICATING. HOWEVER, THIS WAS LUCKY BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN ON HIGHWAY, I WAS EXTREMELY STRESSED OUT STANDING IN THE LANE TO TURN TO HIGHWAY. I CHANGED MY MIND, TURNED AROUND, AND RETURNED TO THE PARKING LOT AT A CRAWL. I UNDERSTAND NOW THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE LINCOLN MKX 2007 DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE FORD OPENED A CLAIM WEBSITE RELATED TO JUST THIS PROBLEM. NO WONDER RECENTLY I HAVE BEEN BOMBARDED WITH THE LETTERS TO RENEW MY FACTORY WARRANTY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. JUST AS I PAID OFF MY CAR LAST JANUARY, IT STARTED BREAKING ON ME. IS IT THE REASON WHY YOU MAKE YOUR CARS TO LAST ONLY DURING THE PERIOD OF THE 5-YEAR FACTORY WARRANTY?!NOW, TO CHANGE SENSOR ON THE PEDAL COST 400+ AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE LINCOLN MKX BECAUSE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR |
| 2007 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | WHILE OUR 2007 LINCOLN MKX WAS STANDING STILL, PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. I TRIED IT SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH THE SAME RESULT. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER, DEALER SAID IT WAS NORMAL. I OBJECTED TO THAT COMMENT. ON FURTHER INVESTIGATION BY THE DEALER, THEY SAID IT WAS THE MASTER CYLINDER. THEY DID REPLACE THE MASTER CYLINDER. I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE, PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THOUGHT IT FELT FUNNY, COMPLAINED AGAIN TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID THEY WOULD GIVE ME A TEST DRIVE WITH THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE. BEFORE THAT HAPPENED, THE MECHANIC CAME OUT, GOT IN MY VEHICLE, PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, WHICH AGAIN WENT TO THE FLOOR. HIS STATEMENT WAS HUH?, MUST BE IN THE VACUUM SYSTEM. THAT SYSTEM IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REPLACED. WILL KEEP EVERYONE POSTED IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS. *TR |
