1995 Lincoln Town car air spring rear suspension, idler and pitman arm were all replaced before recall notice was issued. The consumer received a recall notice and took the vehicle to the dealer. The vehicle's check engine light, which had been serviced previously, had illuminated again. The replacement parts had a 12 month 12000 mile warranty. The dealer charged the consumer for the engine service although all they did was add 1/2 quart of antifreeze in the radiator. The dealer refused to honor the warranty. The shift lamp was inoperative. The dealer removed the cluster and replaced the shift bulb. The horn sounded weak. The tech recommended that the consumer replace both horns. There was a lot of play in the steering wheel. The tech recommended that the lower ball joints be replaced. The heater blew out cold air. The dealer replaced the blend door actuator. The consumer stated every morning, the vehicle had to be jumped started. The dealer stated the lighting control module which was no longer manufactured, was causing the battery to drain. The air suspension was replaced three times. Updated 08/15/12

While driving at any speed consumer felt that the plastic for the horn assembly was too hard, and he was suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome because of the horn structure. Plastic for horn assembly was too hard to press. It's on the consumer's left thumb where he suffers from carpal tunnel syndrome.
