“Regarding safety recall notice 25S66/NHTSA recall 25V407 - we took our car to the local Lincoln dealer in Lubbock (Gene Messer Ford/Lincoln) in late November for the repair of the recall C-Pillar Applique Delamination. There was considerable wind/rattle noise coming from the passenger side, which is a component of the recall. After completing the recall we noticed the wind/rattle noise is still there and even slightly worse. We have contacted the service representative at Gene Messer Ford/Lincoln regarding this and have yet to receive a reply. …”
NHTSA complaint #11713372, filed 2026-01“The display on our 2022 Lincoln Aviator failed, again. It had been repaired by the dealer with a new rear camera. It failed to show the backup view, again, and also that display shows the controls for defrost and other safety features. It was a rainy day, so, we were without a display screen showing the backup camera AND could not turn on our defroster as it is located on that dark screen, also. Our windows fogged due to no defroster, and, we had no back up camera view to show traffic behind us. …”
NHTSA complaint #11526116, filed 2023-06“Lincoln Way App team bricked (some) users by deploying an App update early Feb 2026 that was not backwards compatible for use of basic features/function. I last used App Jan 2026 while car was at dealer but when I picked up car 2/13/26 I was BRICKED with no ability to use App since. Checked Lincoln website & compatibility reqmt stated IOS 16.0 is min req’d, updates are optional & not required to continue use for basic features like lock/unlock, remote start, chk tire pressure, etc. (see screenshot attached). Opened case w/Lincoln Way App team 2/17/26. …”
NHTSA complaint #11730568, filed 2026-04“My Aviator was parked with trunk open to load groceries from shopping cart. Must have stepped under bumper such that it triggered the kick sensor to close the tailgate. The problem is, it did NOT detect spouse’s body, did NOT stop the tailgate from closing & as a result, hit him on the head. He jolted out of the way & the tailgate continued to close all the way. This is serious safety issue!”
