“With less than 700 miles on the new car, my instrument cluster went black. I took it to the selling dealer who kept it for several days and said they couldn't replicate the issue. I was informed when they returned my car that when they first started the car my issue was not there. We received several text message warning from Lincoln. Photo attached.”

“Driving car and stopped to get gas, blank instrumental panel when I restarted the car. The problem will not resolve unless car is turned off for a period of time, hour or longer.after it occurred 5 times march - august 2019 and has since occurred again december 24 2019 and april 26 2020. Air bag restraint fault alert goes off every time. Each time I have had it in the dealership with nothing resolved. Implemented and update in august but only after I got ford corporate involved. I am so tired of dealing with this issue and it's not safe!”

“The screen freezes up or goes blank while driving or upon starting up this is happened over a dozen times. When this happens the driver assist stops working along with the back up cameras the bluetooth the navigation everything that is on the screen is not available to me this is a huge safety hazard the dealership is aware of the issue and I am not the only one having this problem this needs to be fixed. Lincoln is aware of the issue and does not have a fix for it. The first time this happened was in september 2019 and it's been happening ever since!!!”

“I am writing you because of my concern with the 2019 Lincoln Nautilus SUV. I have leased this car from landmark Lincoln in englewood, colorado. I had a frightening experience on friday night, december 20, 2019. I was driving slowly through a parking lot in a commercial area when my car went dead. No lights, no power ' everything inside and outside the car was dark. I was blocking cars parked perpendicular to where I was stuck. They couldn't get out as I was in their way. Of greatest concern was that I was left 'in harm's way' with a completely dead car and no way to move it to a safe area. …”
