Passenger door switch defected stays on at the dash can not lock doors when driving and over head lights stay on till I reach a certain speed as well as when I lock doors the alarm goes off for no reason due to it picks up that the driver door is a jar this is a big safety issue as and when you investigate this you will see for yourself this is all happening when the car is parked as well as in motion
- Diamond, IL, USA
My passenger door agar sensor does not work properly. Even if my door is closed, it remains on and I can spend hours opening and closing my door for it to remain on. I cannot lock the car when unoccupied since my alarm will go off within an hour trying to alert me that my door is open, even though it is not. While driving, my doors do not lock and my lights remain on.. my child could open her door in the back seat while I am driving down the road because of their failure to lock. I also cannot see at all at nights with the interior lights on. They do not go off until I reach a certain speed, because of the sensor saying my door is agar.

2011 Lincoln Mkx electrical system software recall Lincoln issued a recall (10V659000) NHTSA campaign #11V128000 which required replacement of affected bcms may have the potential for an internal short. If an electrical short develops, an overheating condition may occur which could result in a vehicle fire. Our Lincoln started to develop issues only a few weeks after purchase. The turn signal would repeatedly burn out. The dealership we purchased from replaced the bulb & housing several times with no permanent fix. After some research we found the recall notice & called Lincoln directly. As it turns our the car (VIN number & all fit the criteria for the recall per Ford) however Lincoln refuses to fix the affected module because the car is originally from Canada! we live 1 hour away form Canada, so iam sure we are not the first to buy a car in the us that originated in Canada. At this point we do not even feel safe driving the vehicle for fear it will catch fire. The signal & running lights burn out every 2-3 weeks. Very scary! we cannot in good faith trade the car in either with knowledge of this information. The mechanics that have looked at the vehicle stated that there is evidence of an actual fire around the turn signal housing.

Door latch sticks and vehicle won't sense that the door is closed. Clearly an issue for Ford based on an internet search yet nothing is being done to help. Daughter at school can't get interior lights to go off and can't lock door because the car thinks door is open.

While driving 40 mph, my vehicle stalled out, power went out, lights, power steering and brakes. I had to pull to the side of the road and put my vehicle in park to restart it. I was driving in a busy area at night, no headlights, very difficult to control, my car was slowing down due to no power.
