Its 7 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, including 4 electrical system and 2 back over prevention entries, with 1 injury 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.
- Verify axle pinion and brake line recall repairs.
- Request trailer brake and light recall completion records.
- Test the rearview camera repeatedly and check wiper operation.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Lincoln dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
