Vehicle won't start due to discharged battery.
Batter lost its charge (4 times)
On 5/18/19, car was sitting outside all day.the temperature reached95 degrees that day.that night as i was leaving, i decided to open the sunroof and when i hit the button, the panel would only open 1/2 inch.i thought something was blocking it so i closed it back.when i did that, the inside sunroof panel material started wrinkling up.i proceeded to open again and the same thing happened.i left it alone until the next day.i tried opening it again and the next time i heard something snapped.as i was investigating the inside panel, it had ripped.it looked as though the sun had melting the plastic and as it cooled, when the sunroof opened, it ripped the inside panel cover.now, this have to be replaced.there need to be better another type of material that's not affected by the sun and also a better tint to protect the glass from getting to hot and causing trapped heat to melt plastic and/or adhesive to come apart.this is a hazard if the sunroof can't open if fire, crash, or smoke is trapped inside the vehicle.i have a infant and two dogs that ride in this vehicle.
Since i purchased this vehicle in september of 2018 it has been towed to the dealer twice and i have driven to the dealer 3 times. The battery continues to go dead after i park and lock the vehicle in my garage. I have went into the garage and the vehiclelights would come on without the key fob. I have had the battery replaced and it continues to happen. My car is at the dealer as i write this complaint. Lincoln stated that: they checked for lights coming on could not verify at this time check oasis and no symptom for concern let sit over weekend and still no light confirmation. No problem found at this time3/5/2019. 3/17/2019 vehicle right back at the dealer same problem.

The manual lift gate will not always open. When in drive or in park while turned off, there is a sound coming from the lift gate like it is trying to function.

Afraid to drive on the highways.need this addressed before someone gets killed.need help with this!!
My vehicle has had 4 instances where it will not start and vehicle notes that the battery is low. This has left me stranded and needing a tow or jump. Dealership had been unable to determine the draw and had replaced the battery but issue has occurred since. I have contacted lincoln but they have not been able to assist with getting this fixed as it is an intermittent issue. The car has failed to start at the dealership once. A search online will show this is a common issue and no one has found a solution to the problem.
I live in the midwest and it was cold outside and i was driving home with my brand new state of the art lincoln. When i was heading home my car indicated low battery, which i assumed would charge as i continued to drive. Next thing i know, everything was turning off (all internal displays, headlights, wipers, steering) due to conserving battery while i was on a major interstate in a blizzard.i thought i was going to die, on the interstate in a blizzard at 60 mph. I finally got over to the side of the road and it went into park.the dealer called and stated it was a bad alternator.great, my issue is the battery voltage is so low that the combination with temp and alternator everything shut off in such a quick mode it gave me no time to safely exit off the road.the car is not designed to support this situation and i have the cold climate package, this is why we are paying a high price for engineers to do their job and understand how the systems act together.how is the government and manufacture allowing this situation to happen.my life and being a mother to three kids is more important than a small cost reduction.

Gas tank would suck in air, begin to run very ruff and then stall. Would have to open the gas door and push the seal open in order to allow air into the tank.
I've brought my car back numerous times for the same problem, a problem that began within the first month or purchase. I've asked for documentation off all the 'repairs' to no avail. Some of the ways the problem presents its self include the following- soon after starting the car & beginning the drive it completely stalls and shuts off, it could take numerous tries before restart. Or other times while driving it suddenly slows down and shuts off in the middle of traffic, with my children in the car, this happened and it would not restart! i had to push it to the adjacent gas station and wait almost 2 hours for dealers repair to send a tow truck. The other way this issue manifests itself is after filling the tank with gas. It starts, sputters and shuts off!the last time i brought it in they refused a rental, took about 6 weeks to repair. I had to pay out of pocket for a rental. They finally reimbursed me but it took weeks after the 6 weeks of shelling out well over $1,000

When starting the vehicle the wrench light appears and also the advance autotrac warning. Also my signal lights blink very fast. They both go off for awhile and the signal lights blink slow again, but will reappear once starting the vehicle again. Car seems to stall when this happens. Dealer says they can't find and issue and bulbs seem to work fine.
I drove to the end of my driveway which is approximately 1000 feet. I came to a complete stop, got out of the vehicle with the expectation that it went into park because this is a safety feature of this vehicle that i have used many times without issue and it is listed as such in my owner's manual. I stood there beside the vehicle to allow two cars to pass on the highway before walking across the highway to check my mail. I collected my mail and turned around to cross the highway to return to my vehicle and i saw the vehicle coming across the road towards me. I jumped out of the way of the vehicle just in time before it struck my mailbox. As a result the front grill is damaged. I feel fortunate that i turned around in time to get out of the way because i could have been hurt or killed if the vehicle had struck me.
I am the owner of a 2015 lincoln mkc with 50,406 miles with a bad transmission. The car would 'jerk' as it automatically shift into gear when driving on a highway or on a local road. This is a serious problem for any driver.having a 2015 model car with 50,406 miles having a transmission rebuilt, the safety of this car need to be investigated.
On april 14, 2017, at 9:10 p.m., on my way home, i pulled up to our townhome mail box center, put my car in park, unhooked my seat belt and got out of the car in order to get my mail.i left my car door open as i was only going to get the mail and get back in, as i have done thousands of times. Right after i got out of the car, i realized the car was rolling back.instinct had me running after the car trying to hold on to the door in an attempt to get back into the car and put my foot on the brake.i got around the door but could not hold on.the door knocked me backwards onto the street and the car passenger front tire ran over my left foot and my right thigh.i had a severe laceration on the back of my head that required 2 staples.i also had a broken left toe and a severely bruised foot and ankle.my right thigh swelled to at least double its size with bad contusions.knee became very swollen, especially in the back also with bad contusions. Residual effects are still in existence with pain in my leg and continued swelling.thankfully, the car veered to the left as it rolled down the street and hit into a rock wall in the complex.therefore no one else was injured and no parked cars were hit.i took the car to the dealership where i leased it on may 3, 2018 as i was too injured previous to that time to go out.the service manager wrote up the information about the accident and said he would be submitting it to the ford motor company.they held the car until june 7, 2017 when i was told that ford was denying my claim of fault with the car.since it was leased, i had no recourse except to have the car fixed and continue to drive it.i was scared every day i drove that car until i got rid of it for another type car.

Hours after i purchased a certified pre-owned 2015 lincoln mkc with approximately 19k miles the tire pressure light came on (friday). I was told the car had a perfect carfax. I also noticed the air vent to the back seat didn't seem to work well. I called the dealership as soon as they re-opened and was told to bring the car in monday). On monday morning, as i turned at approx 10mph into a parking lot, halfway through the turn i completely lost the ability to steer causing the car to run straight into a curb. When i say lose steering, it was unlike anything i've ever experienced. As i turned the wheel, the car ceased to respond. I got out to walk around the car and there was no ice or black ice, and it was not slippery to me. Though it felt like minutes in my head, it had to have been a matter of no more than 1-3 seconds. I've been driving for over 15 years and have a perfect driving record. Thankfully my daughter was not in the car and i was turning off a side road at a slow speed or else i wouldn't be alive to write this. The dealership towed the car in for service. I was clearly terrified and shaken up over the incident. The used car manager started off as incredibly sympathetic and over the next few days began speaking down to me, saying there was nothing wrong with the car, that they ran every test and the car is fine regardless of what i experienced. So now, my option is to keep the car or turn it in and lose thousands.i asked for copies diagnostic reports and was told there were none. The dealership has had my car for 2 weeks now. I looked up other recalls and asked if maybe the car stalled and i was just too shaken up to realize- no responsei had such wonderful experience with my first lincoln, i decided buy a second, but after this experience and poor protocol, i can't say that i would purchase another. That is, if i even survive this one.
I am concerned about thebutton style gears.twice now, my thumb accidentally depressed the n button and the engine start/stop button.the vehicle started to coast both times and i had to think fast to get the vehicle back into drive.fortunately, i was not traveling at highway speeds and no one was close enough to hit me.the reason for this, is that when using the screen on the dashboard, it's normal to use your thumb to balance your hand, while your index finger depresses options on the screen. The thumb naturally goes to where the gear shift buttons are.i visited the dealership twice on this issue. I was told that there was nothing they could do and it was the way the car was designed.it is something i had have to get used to, they said.they also said a few people complained to them about this. They said that cars are designed to turn off while in drive for safety reasons.if this is true, then why would lincoln put the "engine start/stop " button so close to where it can be accidentally depressed. I questioned the safety of the vehicle when the engine start/stop? button was depressed and my worst fears were confirmed.key safety features, such as air bags, amongst other features are turned off, when the vehicles engine is off. So if this happens while i am driving on a highway, not only would i likely get hit from behind, but i would be completely vulnerable without air bags.the service department advised me to call lincoln customer service which i did on 8/11/14.i reported the incident and also told them i would follow up with a letter.no one to date has contacted me from lincoln.
On several occasions i have come very close to getting into serious accidents with my 2015 lincoln mkc. The vehicle has a major blind spot from from the frame cowel that leads down from the roof covering the outer edge of the windshield. Inside the vehicle it is extremely difficult to see oncoming traffic if you're looking left. If a motor cycle, motor scooter or bicyclist is approaching from your right side, you may not see him or her.i was stopped at a stop sign, intending to make a left hand turn. For some reason i took an extra second to stop. I did not see the motor scooter and he would have t-boned my car if i had just pulled out assuming there was no traffic coming.
The contact owns a 2015 lincoln mkc. While driving approximately 60 mph, the door chime sounded and the front passenger door opened. The contact pulled the vehicle onto the road shoulder and, after repeated attempts to close the door, the contact had to use a bungee cord to secure the door. The vehicle was driven home. The contact called the dealer and was advised that only the rear doors were included in a recall. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
