“Over the past few weeks the air conditioner blower on my 2015 Lincoln Navigator would just stop working. We took it to the firestone complete auto care and they said it needed freon. $300 later, I was back on the road. But a few hours later, the blower stopped working again. I took it back and after investigation found a special service message ssm47797 a poor electrical connection at the blower motor speed control. …”

“A few months ago, around 65,000 miles, I was driving on the highway when I noticed a loss of power as I was trying to accelerate. At that same time, the check engine icon started flashing. I was unable to accelerate until the check engine icon stopped flashing. Everything went back to normal and I didn't experience this problem again for a couple of months. This would occasionally happen whenever I'd try to overtake another car on the highway. These days at 78,000 miles, the vehicle intermittently runs rough.”
