Had one headlight issue for months that I knew about. Told BCM issue but the BCM for this vehicle has been discontinued. Was pulled over by the police only to be told the taillights are out. Took it back in and was told electrical issue that the dealer needed to address. Already knew it was the same issue, the BCM. Unfortunately, I have to get rid of this car, and it is still being sold. This car should be labeled a lemon as you will not pass an inspection once this happens and the part needed is no longer available, or repairable.

What owners say
Driver side Headlight goes on and off. Signal light not working. Dealership said new BCM is needed and unfortunately they have been discontinued/obsolete for this vehicle
Left headlight goes on and off. Dealer can’t find the problem. Has offered different very expensive options to see if it would work. One part that was told may be needed is the body control module which Lincoln and Ford has discontinued. Told they can try replacing the entire assembly but would not guarantee a fix. This repair is costly. Was then told I may need to purchase a new car instead of the dealer trying to resolve the problem. Car will not pass inspection if this is not fixed.
Drivers side headlight intermittently goes on and off. Signal light does not work when this happens. Have been told that headlight control module would need to be replaced, but Lincoln and Ford no longer has the part.
I live in the midwest and it was cold outside and I was driving home with my brand new state of the art lincoln. When I was heading home my car indicated low battery, which I assumed would charge as I continued to drive. Next thing I know, everything was turning off (all internal displays, headlights, wipers, steering) due to conserving battery while I was on a major interstate in a blizzard. I thought I was going to die, on the interstate in a blizzard at 60 MPH. I finally got over to the side of the road and it went into park. The dealer called and stated it was a bad alternator. Great, my issue is the battery voltage is so low that the combination with temp and alternator everything shut off in such a quick mode it gave me no time to safely exit off the road. The car is not designed to support this situation and I have the cold climate package, this is why we are paying a high price for engineers to do their job and understand how the systems act together. How is the government and manufacture allowing this situation to happen. My life and being a mother to three kids is more important than a small cost reduction.
