“Purchased vehicle used with 103,000 miles in august 2020. From the start the car did not feel right. I was hearing a light knocking noise going over uneven roads. The wheel felt slightly unsteady brought to 2 mechanics and neither could determine a problem. Now 6 months later I have gotten 2 wheel alignments, going on my third. Brand new tires in november are almost destroyed. At this time I am terrified the car will loose steering function. The suspension feels horrible, car has very loose feeling when turning or going on uneven roads. …”
NHTSA complaint #11317550, filed 2020-03, 103,000 miles“I received a letter from Lincoln to carry out some recalls that were not well repaired and, like the NHTSA recall number 20v072 case, were not repaired.

I would not like to discover the lie of the Lincoln company, saying that it changed the two (02) catalysts and the four sensors (04) and after the service for several days, I found a 'poorly executed' repair. …”
