What 1995 Lincoln Mark Viii owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The factory headlights are substandard at best and dangerous in low light conditions, such as poorly lit streets.the brake rotors front and rear are failing on my car and many others cars at an alarming rate. I've changed brake pads before in as little as 5000 miles, never have I had to replace a rotor at 3000 miles. 3000 miles is an interval for engine service...not brakes, brakes should last 10,000 miles easy. My rotors were warped in 3000 miles from the purchase. This is causeing brake and control problems with my car.
No summary
Headlamps are of inferior design and unsafe for night time driving. Extemely low light output at night making it an unsafe vehicle to be driven at night ! Brake rotors have extemely poor design and are not manufactured thick enough to withstand normal usage and heat. Warpage within 5,000k miles on every new factory rotor. Definitely unsafe rotors.
Brakes system continually requires repairs. Mjs
Hi speed steering wheel vibration, eventually becoming all speed vibration. Dealer has turned or replaced the rotors at least 6 times in one and 1/2 years and claims there is no history of a problem. We've replaced tires, turned rotors, replaced rotors, aligned 2-3 times, high speed balanced, etc. I'd like service bulletins 97-19-4, 96222, 97-17-6 which all point to brake problems but I can't get details. Dealer is not helpful.
Anti -theft device installed in vehicle by factory caused an electrical short; also steering wheel locked up, resulting in loss of control accident, speed 35 MPH and anti-lock brake failure.
