problem #1

Navigator 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,500 miles
2003 Lincoln Navigator--- within the first 60 days (5000 miles) of ownership the rear end was termed to be defective and a complete new assembly had to be installed. At 12,000 miles the rear end again has started making the same sounds as before. I took the vehicle to the dealership where it was purchased and I was told that Ford was aware of the problem and nothing was done to repair it.
