This vehicle has issues with the transmission shifting and/or not shifting, it shifts back and forth between high and low gears until it stalls, this time it stalled while in front of a large tractor trailer. It stalled and lost all power including steering and brakes nearly causing a crash. When I took it to the dealership they told me it was a known issue and could do nothing to fix the issue as it is a glitch in the computer.

Vehicle had burning oil smell coming from engine compartment , valve cover gaskets were leaking oil into spark plug wells, requiring spark plug replacement and possible coil pack damage if not gaskets not replaced. This just after a 60,000 multi-point inspection, oil change, air filter change, fuel filter change and fuel induction svc at another lincoln dealer. Lincoln should recall all ls's and replace the gaskets at no cost in order to prevent vehicle stalling at highway speeds, as coil packs and plug damage can occur and cause loss of power.
