FORD HAS FAILED TO INSTALL INSULATION ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE LINCOLN NAVIGATOR HOOD THEREFORE THE HEAT HAS CAUSED THE HOOD PAINT AND CLEAR COAT TO BUBBLE AND PEEL. MY HOOD HAS AS MANY SPOTS ON IT AS A HORMONAL TEENAGE BOY HAS ON HIS FACE. THIS ISSUE HAS CAUSED INJURY TO THE VALUE OF MY CAR AND MY PRIDE IN OWNING THIS VEHICLE. MANY LAWSUITS HAVE BEEN FILED AND SUCCESSFULLY WON THROUGH SEVERAL STATES, A NATIONWIDE RECALL NEEDS TO HAPPEN FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR

NOTICED THE AIR COMPRESSOR RAN ALL OF THE TIME FOR THE AIR RIDE SYSTEM. THE CAR WAS STILL IN WARRANTY TOOK IT TO FORD AND THEY SAID THEY HAD FIXED THE PROBLEM. 800 MILES OUT OF WARRANTY THE RIDE SIDE AIR SHOCK WENT BAD AND BURNED OUT THE COMPRESSOR. LOOKED UP OLD PAPER WORK AND COME TO FIND OUT THAT THEY HAS PUT ON A NOISE REDUCTION KIT ON THE COMPRESSOR. SO WE COULD NO LONGER HEAR IT RUN. CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS CUSTOMER SERVICE AT LINCOLN. THEY TOLD US SORRY ABOUT YOUR LUCK IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE BAGS ON THE AIR RIDE SYSTEM WERE DRY ROTTED (THE TRUCK HAS 50,800 MILES. HE SAID THIS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD AND LINCOLN. THEY REPLACE AT LEAST 8 SETS A WEEK. I HAD THE RIGHT SIDE FIXED, NEW COMPRESSOR. NOW 7 MONTHS LATER THE LEFT SIDE AS DONE THE SAME THING (55,000 MILES). *TR

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
