2017 Lincoln Continental Problems, complaints & recalls

Recall number 19S03 repaired prior to my purchase. Driver door latch has disassembled

Date of Incident: [redacted] Location: [[redacted]] Vehicle Speed: 0 Description: The right front and right rear doors on my 2017 Lincoln Continental (VIN: [[redacted]]) became completely inoperable from the outside - the exact same safety defect addressed under recall 19S03. The recall repair was previously performed by an authorized Ford/Lincoln dealer, however that repair has since failed, leaving me with the same dangerous condition the recall was issued to correct. A door that cannot be opened from the...

The contact owns a 2017 Lincoln Continental. The contact stated while at various speeds, the contact noticed that there was an abnormal burning oil odor coming from the vehicle. Additionally, the contact stated while driving at various speeds on several occasions, the vehicle made an abnormal grinding sound, unexpectedly bounced and stalled. The message "4WD Off" was displayed. The vehicle was towed to different independent mechanics, and the transfer case was replaced twice; however, the failure persisted while...

Vehicle: 2017 Lincoln Continental Black Label VIN: [[redacted]] I am reporting a seriously catastrophic brake system safety failure. The brake pedal intermittently travels to the floor with little to no resistance, resulting in a sudden loss of hydraulic braking pressure and significantly increased stopping distance. The braking response is spongy, inconsistent, and unreliable. A "Low Brake Fluid" warning appears despite no visible external leak, suggesting an internal hydraulic failure. I almost hit a vehicle...

I have a 2017 Lincoln Continental that the passenger side front door will not open from the inside.

Doors open while driving , happened 4 times in the last month . Back right door and drivers door 2 occasions on both doors . On line it says all Lincoln Continentals from 2017 2018 and 2019 were recalled and there telling me mine is not on the recall . This is a very dangerous situation this is my wives car and she does not like driving it anymore .

The rear doors on my 2017 Lincoln Continental do not open from the outside when the exterior handle button is pressed. The doors do open from the inside. This failure is very similar to the symptoms described in Ford's existing recall for defective door latches on 2017 Continental vehicles, but my VIN is not included in the recall. This is a safety hazard because first responders or bystanders may be unable to open the rear doors from outside during an emergency such as a fire or crash. I am requesting that NHTSA...

My car has had 1 or all 4 of the outside door latches fail for 3-4 times now over its lifetime. Only under warranty for 10 years or 100k miles. Very expensive repair, at 1500 for 1 latch, or 5500 for all 4. This is almost the value of the whole car now. This happens to ALL Lincoln Continentals and is very infamous & common for them & should be a lifetime recall warranty item for safety. Also, both Catalytic convertor show to be failing within 150k-165k miles which is way too soon. And another very expensive fix.

Upon startup 2 error messages appear. Driver Side Door Defaults Adaptive Cruise Control Default

I have a 2017 Lincoln Continental that started off last year not letting me open one of my back doors from the outside (which I did take to the dealership and got a quote but was too expensive), two weeks ago, it was both back doors not opening from the outside, then last night, the front passenger door stopped opening from the outside. It does not matter if I have the doors locked or not, I cannot open the three doors from the outside. There is a recall for this condition, but not on my VIN. I am worried that I...

The contact stated that two years later the trunk latch failed. The trunk could be closed; however, the trunk failed to latch securely, and a rope was used to keep it securely closed. The contact stated that on a separate occasion, while driving 40 MPH, the wrench warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the...

The 2017 Lincoln Continental started using electronic door latches. When they fail, there is no way to open the door from the outside other than to break the window. The driver side door is the only door that has an emergency escape latch. If someone is trapped inside the car, even though the door is unlocked, it will not open if the switch is faulty. There is a notice online calling out the issue [[redacted]] . I believe this is a safety issue because if a child or unconscious passenger is in the vehicle...

Door default warning appears when starting the vehicle.

Rear passenger door will not open. Lincoln has active recalls on other VINs but mine is not included. I ask that mine be included. My door will occasionally pop open, but the most common problem is the handle will not engage from the outside. My Lincoln has the door handle on the trim piece. This is a common recall but my car is not included. It needs to be as not being able to open a door or it randomly opening poses threat or harm to myself and my family.

Driver side rear door does not open from outside nor the inside . This is a safety concern because in an event of emergency we need to be able to exit the vehicle through all doors

The contact owns a 2017 Lincoln Continental. The contact stated that the rear passenger's side door could not be opened from outside the vehicle while using the exterior door handle. The contact stated that the rear passenger's side door was occasionally independently unlatched and was unsecured. The failure occurred while driving and while the vehicle was parked. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The...

The front right door does not close. The door swings open and does not latch creating a safety issue for the passenger riding in the front seat. My car is presently at planet ford in houston texas where they are charging me $2000 for the repair, which I feel is not my fault for this defective issue. This problem did occur earlier but we were able to correct it by clicking the lock. That is no longer working for us, so we took it in for repairs.

The contact owns a 2017 Lincoln Continental. The contact stated that while pulling out of a parking spot, the message "Driver door latch not engaging" was displayed. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was determined that all four door locks needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that all four door locks and the lock modules needed to be replaced and reprogrammed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 11,620.

Door latch failed and will not unlock the front passenger door. Dangerous situation if the battery dies. Similar recall but Lincoln said there's nothing they can do only 2019 was recalled for that. Would not make an exception. Dealer was surprised and advised me to report.

Door warning

Recall 19V-077 was performed in 2019. On [[redacted]] The passenger front door was closed and is now unable to open again from the inside or outside. A message is displayed on the dash stating "passenger front door open". Called Lincoln corporate support and spoke with Elaine, she told me the recall has already been performed, and cannot be performed again under any type of warranty or extension as the recall had a cutoff date and has "expired". No parts warranty on the superseded parts either. Told me I will have...
