| 2009 | VISIBILITY | THERE WERE NO EXTRANEOUS VARIABLES LEADING TO THE REAR WINDOW EXPLOSION. THE POLICE WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANY CONTACT ENTRY OR EVIDENCE OF VANDALISM AND INDICATED IT WAS POSSIBLY DEFECTIVE GLASS. DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT INVESTIGATE THE POSSIBILITY OF PREVIOUS STRESS CRACKS OR DESIGN DEFECTS, ALTHOUGH THEY ADMITTED THAT THIS CLASS OF VEHICLE HAS SEVERE INTERNAL PRESSURE FLUCTUATIONS WHILE A REAR PASSENGER WINDOW IS OPEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, AND THIS WAS EXPERIENCED THE DAY BEFORE. THE GLASS SHATTERED WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED, WITH THE TEMPERATURE BEING BETWEEN 65 & 70F, WITH NOBODY IN IT. THERE WERE NO PRIOR ISSUES WITH THE GLASS. THE ONLY ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO THE GLASS WAS THE PRESSURE FLUCTUATIONS. *TR |
| 2007 | POWER TRAIN | MY LINCOLN MKX WAS HAVING UNUSUAL LOSS OF POWER ISSUES WHILE DRIVING FOR SOME TIME. IN MID-SEPTEMBER, I DISCOVERED A THICK, BLACK FLUID LEAKING FROM THE CAR. ON INSPECTION BY A MECHANIC, THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE TRANSFER CASE AND A COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSFER CASE WAS REQUIRED. ON FURTHER RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, KNOWN TO FORD/LINCOLN MECHANICS, WITH THE 2007 AND 2008 MODELS OF THE LINCOLN MKX AND FORD EDGE. I UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED WITH LATER MODELS. *TR |
