2013 Lincoln MKX electrical system problems

“Back up camera don't work half the time or it is upside down and don't allow proper visibility to back up safely. Have to rely on mirrors and windows to back up.”

“Brake failure. Pedal drops, especially when ABS is activated. Dealer diagnosed ABS control module and HCU hydraulic leak. Parts for this are on back order per dealer leaving me with a dangerous driving situation or inability to use my vehicle. No warning lamp or message displays. The fact that the parts to fix a major safety item are not available is unacceptable.”

“The contact owns a 2013 Lincoln MKX. The contact stated when the vehicle was started the "Service Brakes" warning light illuminated. The contact stated that several other unknown warning lights were illuminated when the vehicle was started several days later. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed who retrieved DTC code: U3000; 49-68. The dealer determined that the ABS module needed to be replaced; however, the parts to repair the vehicle were on a national backorder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 92,109.”

“Noticed for the last year or two that the buttons on my air and best turn on without to touch any button and will not power off also the windows will fog while driving. If heat is on the buttons will dial to air conditioning which causes foggy windows while on busy interstate. Also noticed there are several complaints on the internet from others who experience similarities of what is call ghost buttons. This also send sensor into a frenzy and can cause the car to over heat without warning happen to me twice.”

“THE HVAC AND PCM NEEDED THE VIN NUMBER RECODED?? TWO HOURS OF LABOR AT A COST OF $385. DOLLARS. REASON IS HEAT WOULD BLOW COLD AIR ON DRIVERS SIDE AND HEAT ON PASSAGEM SIDE. DEALER SAID THE VEHICLE VIN NUMBER NEEDED TO BE CORRECTED IN BOTH THE HVAC AND PCM MODULES.. DEALER SAID IT IS A GLITCH? VEHICLE IS USED REGULARLY AND THE CABIN AIR FILTER HAD JUST BEEN CHANGED BY THE DEALER WHEN PROBLEM STARTED.”

“WHEN YOU HIT THE GAS PEDAL YOU LOSE ALL ACCELERATION. YOU HAVE TO DRIFT TO A COMPLETE STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART IT. HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT MULTIPLE TIMES AND ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MPH. THANKFULLY TRAFFIC WAS NOT HEAVY AND I WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR STOPPED AND RESTARTED BEFORE THE POSSIBILITY OF SOMEONE RUNNING INTO US. THERE WAS NO SHOULDER TO PULL OFF ON BECAUSE OF CONSTRUCTION. IT WAS TERRIFYING. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND THERE IS NO WARNING AS TO WHEN. A VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND LINCOLN SEEMS TO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS SO THEY SEND PEOPLE HOME IN THEIR DEFECTIVE VEHICLES BECAUSE AS THEY SAY THEY CAN'T GET THE PROBLEM TO DUPLICATE SO THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND SENT ME HOME NOW TWICE. TRUST ME THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND MANY OTHERS AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD!!!”
