I took my 2013 Lincoln Mkx for maintenance. I was told that my power transfer unit, (ptu) was defective, it is a sealed unit and being an integral part of the drive train, it needed to be changed. Vehicle was stationery. I contacted Lincoln to see why an essential part should have failed. I was told there are no recalls, nothing could be done. 1.other people had similar issues. 2. the police cars were equipped with coolers so that the ptu would not overheat. 3. the cars with the ptus sold overseas were given a drain plug. 4. Ford switched the makers to a new one because of the incidents. I sent an email to nancy joy falotico, president, the Lincoln motor company, not hearing I called the executive offices, I received a call from another rep. Who was responding for Ms. Falotico, she said again, nothing could be done. Keep your receipts and if there should be a recall you can get reimbursement. The malfunction of this part could have catastrophic results. Lincoln motors gave the BBB an unacceptable response. 2.contacted attorney general's office of ct response not acceptable. Same response as twas sent to BBB. 3.reccommended to contact you. 4. letter from Ford tried to make it just a warranty issue. It obviously has nothing to do with warranty.

In regards to my 2013 Lincoln Mkx, the automatic transmission frequently does not engage in park --- about half the time. When stationary, the automatic transmission gear shift lever is pushed into the "P" position, but the vehicle warns via a dinging and dash warning that it is not in park. Stationary locations include my garage, which is level, and public parking lots, which are typically level in my area. There is an existing recall for the 2013 Lincoln Mkx (ntsa campaign number: 14N393000), which regards a defective "half-shaft disengagement". it includes comment that until repaired, when stopped to engage the parking brake or the vehicle could roll away. I do not know whether that recall involves the problem with my Lincoln. A search was performed on your website for a recall on my vehicle using its VIN, but no recall was found.

When driving the wrench icon pops up and then the car goes into limp mode. The only way out of this is to put the car in park press the stop button then restart the vehicle. This happens every couple of weeks. I called the dealership in memphis and they couldn't tell me what to do other than to bring the car in for 4-5 days and they would try to determine the problem.

When you put the gear shift in park and turn the SUV off, the warning light will come on the dashboard stating that the vehicle is not in park. You have to either restart the SUV and take it out of park a few times or do not restart and hit the button on the shifter a few times to get the light to turn off. This is a reoccurring issue that has occurred since 2015.
