Buying a used 2019 Lincoln Nautilus? Check these 8 recalls first
A long list for a single model year. The critical item is a transmission leak creating fire risk; two high-rated recalls involve airbags, a driver airbag cover that may fly off and power seats that can damage airbag wiring. Several medium recalls cover blank gauge, dashboard and rearview camera displays, plus two for lane-centering hands-off warnings. Of 101 unverified NHTSA owner complaints, electrical system and power train dominate, followed by engine; 2 crashes and no injuries were reported.
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.
- Check for transmission fluid leaks and confirm that recall was performed
- Verify both airbag-related recalls by VIN and watch for airbag warning lights
- Test the gauge cluster, center display and rearview camera for blanking
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Lincoln dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
