I won a 2002 lincoln navigator on an ebay auction and paid $19,000 for the vehicle via direct wire transfer through my bank.the lincoln navigator advertisement represented the vehicle as "like new in every way", "our mechanics have inspected this truck and found everything to be in excellent working condition" & "options: driver & passenger airbags".the vehicle is in poor condition.the airbags were deployed and not replaced.radiator has two holes in it, the manufacturer warranty is voided, keyless remote missing, cd magazine missing, owners manual missing, floor mats do not match, numerous scratches, dings & nicks.i was told it had climate controlled seats and it does not.i was also told that the seller is a private party.unfortunately he is a dealer thus i will have to pay sales tax of $1,064.i have corresponded with the seller via email and telephone numerous times.i have asked him to buy the vehicle back from me or pay for the repairs and he says that he does not have the money.all-in-all the seller's misrepresentation of this vehicle will cost me $8,647.

On 12/03/11 when my husband started our 2002 lincoln navigator a loud bang happened, my seat belt tightened across my chest so tight it hurt and i couldn't breathe, the car started smoking so bad that my oldest daughter jumped out of the truck because it scared her so bad. The seat belt was so tight it wouldn't come off at first which scared me because the smoke was by the side of my head! now the seat belt won't work and i don't want to use my car without it.in the past year, 2011, my truck keeps blowing fuses on the automatic lights and air bag for the passenger side. I keep replacing the fuse but they only last about a week and then they blow out. Once the fuse is replaced the automatic lights work, the airbag light goes off. But, no sooner do i change it, it blows again. So, i haven't replaced it. In february i have to go for emissions and i won't pass with this light on.in the last 6 months, my bright lights have turned on by themselves. I thought it only happened when we use the turn signals, but my husband told me it does it all the time. I didn't believe him until three days ago when i hit a bump and they went on. Then, yesterday i was sitting in our running, parked car and the brights just turned on while the car was on and not moving. That really scared me. What kind of electrical problems does this vehicle have?i have done the one recall on my truck for engine fire. Are there more recalls i should know about?

I think this is a common tactic by ford and the justice department should look into it. I leased a new 2002 navigator and had a similar situation. On a road trip in 2004 with 32000 miles, the engine seized. The dealer claimed there was sludge in the engine and ford would not honor the warranty. Apparently, the lease included free oil changes at the dealer, which i was not aware of. I produced all of the receipts to show that i hadthe oil changed every 3000 miles (more frequently than required) but was told it was irrelevant since i didn't have the dealer do the oil changes. I was told the engine replacement would cost $12,000. The ford dealer was so upset by this he offered to do it for cost, about $4500, but i just walked away, even though they sued and put a $15,000 blot on my credit rating.this was my third navigator lease, including a 1998 and 2000 model before this. I paid top dollar for their most expensive vehicle and this is how they treat good customers. Not to mention being stranded in the desert withmy wife and five kids. I will never buy another ford again.one last point - i had just had the oil changed before i left and had less than 1000 miles on the car when it broke down. I checked the oil and it was more than 1/2 quart down. Clearly the car was using oil at just 32000 miles. Funny thing is, i have a 97 explorer with roughly the same engine, and it finally threw a rod at 250,000 miles of excellent service.
