problem #1

Aug 012001

LS

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles

I took my car to the dealership (Steele Ford in Halifax ) and was told that the wrong program was put in the car by Lincoln during assembly . I was also told that if the problem persisted (which it has) that I would have to have the transmission rebuilt out of my own pocket . Should Lincoln be responsible for the repairs since they installed the wrong programing in the transmission from the factory ....would that not be classified as a factory default therefore making Lincoln responsible for the repairs ? I would like to receive feedback from other Lincoln Ls owners who may have encountered the same problems or better yet an answer from Lincoln would even be better .
