NHTSA complaint #11739709, filed 2026-05

Forward collision avoidance: “I want to bring to your attn something I feel is quite hazardous, but is no longer a worry for me. I have a new Lincoln Corsair, top trim, with Blue cruise self driving. I found I could set the cruise for a certain speed, say 48mph, and several min later the vehicle would suddenly accelerate, at times to 70 mph. No one a the dealership had a clue. The chief mechanic took it for a drive. He could not duplicate the problem . My wife and I , on our own, solved this. …”

NHTSA complaint #11539422, filed 2023-08

Transmission and drivetrain: “The contact owns a 2023 Lincoln Corsair. The contact received Technical Service Bulletin Number: 24L10 (Documentation in Owner’s Manual Incorrectly Stated that the Vehicle Could be Recreationally Flat Towed). The contact stated that the vehicle could not be recreationally flat towed with all wheels on the ground because damages to the powertrain might occur. The contact stated that he typically flat tow his vehicle behind his RV. The contact stated that on a separate occasion, while driving 35 MPH, the message Powertrain Failure was displayed. …”

NHTSA complaint #11691033, filed 2025-10, 9,000 miles

Vehicle speed control: “Cruise control will not hold lock. Suddenly without warning and with no manual input the speed will surge to well over 80MPH and continues to accelerate until the cruise control is manually disengaged. Also sometimes it will go the other way dropping Suddenly to under 50 MPH after being running at 65MPH. This will happen without warning even on an empty highway with no other cars in front. I took the car to the dealer who told me other 2023 Corsairs have the same problem and they said they did a software update but the problem is still there and was not fixed.”
