Buying a used 2020 Lincoln Corsair? Check these 16 recalls first
First model year, and it shows. Two critical fire-related recalls apply: a transmission leak fire risk and engine block heaters that can catch fire. A high-severity recall covers rear coil springs that can rub and break. Beyond that, six separate backup camera recalls were issued, including one that had to be redone. Complaint volume is the highest in this group at 60 unverified NHTSA reports, led by back-over prevention and electrical, and including two crashes, one fire, and one injury.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm the transmission leak and block heater fire recalls are closed, and look for fluid leaks
- Have the rear coil springs inspected for rubbing, wear, or fracture
- Verify which camera recalls were performed, including the redo, and test the camera repeatedly
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Lincoln dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
