Whenever the car is washed or if it snows or rains the car experiences spontaneous electrical activity when no key or person is present using any aspect of the vehicle.for example, after washing the car, the vehicle will drive perfectly fine, but upon being parked, sometimes hours after being parked, the vehicle will then be observed triggering power seats, airbag warning lights, and clicking sounds can be heard.the vehicle has had a power window motor burn out and a wiring harness related to the power seats corrode and fail costing over $700 in repairs.we believe the reason for these problems is due to the windshield leaking on to some kind of electronic control device such as the gem module and then causing the device to short circuit and trigger various electronic lights/switches.more recently, the vehicle was left outside for two weeks with no use and several feet of snow fell along with some rain and the vehicle's battery is now completely discharged due to the electronic problems/moisture leakage.

2006 lincoln navigator, with just over 100,000 miles on vehicle. Vehicle shut down immediately after giving an engine failed safety mode error on dash.fortunately my wife was driving in the neighborhood and doing 25 mph.

The other times the vehicle was being driven around 45 mph on 4 lane highways/roads.we had a 2003 expedition that had the same problem.

I was driving at about 40 mph on a two lane road and my navigator just shut off.i looked at the instruments and it said engine fail safe mode.i pulled over as best i could and placed the vehicle in park and turned it back on.luckily i was only about 3 minutes away from home.i read the manual and it mentioned coolant.i checked the coolant but it is completely full.i've been reading about this issue and it seems as if there's a flaw.i've read about how people take their cars in and have different diagnosis and the issue does not get fixed.i will be taking my vehicle in to ford but i'm worried that i'm going to be charged a lot of money and it may not even repair the issue.there are many complaints about the engine fail safe mode with vehicles shutting off on the highway.i'm afraid to drive my car even after i take it in to ford.if i'm able to i will upload my bill once i see ford.
Was driving on the highway and the vehicle went into engine failsafe mode. Was able 2 pull over and turn engine off and restart with noprob. This has happened at least 10 more times since always on acceleration luckily i was not in accidents. Most of the shut offs have been in highway driving conditions at speeds over 55 mph. After research seems this is hard 2 diagnose but ford is aware of this issue. Seems as though it's usually the throttle body but can also be the fuel modulator. Other people have been in accidents i'm just lucky i haven't.

2006 lincoln navigator with power deploying running boards. Both sides have failed due to the structural support post corroding to the point of mechanical failure. When this fails a passenger stepping on it can be hurt due to a fall so it is a safety issue. Again this is a structural frame member that is failing catastrophically due to corrosion.
Takata inflators do not work in cold weather. Below a certain temperature the car begins to bounce uncontrollably. Makes for a dangerous situation when driving and this begins to ocurr.
In cold weather the cars air suspensions stops working and the car starts bouncing all over the place while driving. This to me is dangerous especially on when occurring on long trips. This is a common problem that i am seeing all over the internet.

The motor running boards, the aluminum piece that suppose to hold the running boards to the vehicle, broke off without any warning.how does this happen?i am driving, stop at the light and make a left turn,and all of a sudden i hear these sound like my running board are sliding out.i pull over and the entire running board is hanging out completely away for the vehicle.luckily there was no other cars beside me.i had to push it back in and drove very slowly so it would not fall back out and hit another car.this is dangerous and could have cause a serious car accident.the running board needs to be checked on all 2006 lincoln navigators as soon as possible.
Drove the vehicle off road, hit a severe pothole, air ride suspension has constantly failed and ford has never repaired it.
Air bags shocks.
A notification appeared on the screen to check suspension while driving on the freeway at least 65 miles per hour.
We have had our navigator in many of times we have had all of the parts in the suspension changed. We have also put in a new compressor. Drove just fine in the summer spring and fall. Once we got our 1 st cold day we have no suspension again. This is my only car and its a family car. Traction does not work when the suspension is out. On slippery roads truck is all over the road. There is nothing the dealer can do they have done everything they can and it still does not wor . I am afraid i will go off the road with my kids in the suv. Also with no suspension my back is now out just driving it to the store. Something needs to be done or lincoln should buy all of them back. We have less then 90,000 on the suv. When asked when this happened it happens every day its cold out.
The suspension on this suv is extremely dangerous i have replaced the suspension airbags oh rings compressors multiple times and each time it turns cold and i live in arizona the car drops and on able to drive it due to extreme violent shaking to wear the car seems like it's going to roll over something needs to be done with the suspension on this vehicle lincoln needs to own up to this mistake
Air suspension on my vehicle begins to bounce in cold weather. Apparently this is a common issue. It is due to a faulty o-ring. I was on a long distance trip and ran into cold weather and the car started bouncing uncontrollably. I feel this could be very dangerous in certain conditions
Suspension goes out frequently for over 2 years and everything has been checked out and ford says nothing is wrong after each repair. I don't understand the rules to getting a vehicle replaced but my concerns are above and beyond the rules and should be considered for our safety and well being.we have been in the shop at least 7-10 times during this time.all goes back to same issue - suspensionin june of 2009 we purchased a 2006 lincoln navigator for nearly $30,000, with the understanding that if we took reasonable care of the care that this would be a dependable,reliable vehicle for our family of 5.since early 2010 we have had nothing but ongoing problems with the suspension system in this car. We have gone nearly two months and $4,000 in car bills during this time driving other cars from dealers while they have been working on our vehicle.started with buying a new control module, then ride height sensors, and on to the latest buying a new air compressor. Car broke down on vacation and they said control module (which was just replaced) and needed to order it so we would have been stranded in florida for nearly a week and this would have been the 3rd new control module put into our car.so ford pumped us up with air and put something in car for nearly $700 and ensured us that will get us back to michigan safely until we could get the new module. Made it 2 hours into our trip and the suspension dropped out on us again. Been nearly 2 years with the same issue.our car has just been taken back in today 1/20/2014 because of the same issue. It broke down on us on our way to a work function this time, so i missed work and we dealt without having car again. Got new air compressor for $900 and it worked for a week this time.bottomed out again and they said every test performed fine again. When will ford/lincoln listen and take action running out of money.

The rear driver side tire valve core was coming out (almost completely). It was sticking out so far that i was unable to screw tire valve cap on completely. By screwing the valve cap tightly would actually cause the valve core to be pushed in which would allow the air to escape from the tire. I have been told that this is a common problem with the tire valves which have the tire pressure sensor attached to them.
The motor running boards, the aluminum piece that suppose to hold the running boards to the vehicle, broke off without any warning.how does this happen?i am driving, stop at the light and make a left turn,and all of a sudden i hear these sound like my running board are sliding out.i pull over and the entire running board is hanging out completely away for the vehicle.luckily there was no other cars beside me.i had to push it back in and drove very slowly so it would not fall back out and hit another car.this is dangerous and could have cause a serious car accident.the running board needs to be checked on all 2006 lincoln navigators as soon as possible.
