We were sent a recall notice on the auto brake system january 2020. Local lincoln dealer doesn't have parts to repair as of october 2020. The ABS light has came on right about the time of notification. Keep getting told that parts are not available to repair on the recall. If I wanted to pay for it then they could repair the problem. This is not satisfactory. Do I need to notify a better business bureau or what do I need to do to get the repair on breaks which could be a safety hazzard?

There was a recall issued by ford for my vehicles brakes in december 2019.(manufacturer recall number19s54;the federal safety agency recall number19v904). This issue has still not been remedied. My last call to their service center I was told that they did not know when the parts would be available to make the repairs but also said they could replace the brakes and charge me over a thousand dollars and ford would reimburse me eventually.

Re: safety recall notice 19s54/the federal safety agency recall 19v‑904 2009 lincoln mkz VIN#[xxx] dear lincoln concierge: I would like to file a claim pertaining to the safety recall listed above. I spent 4 months having braking issues and had my lincoln towed 3 times because of brake problems. Following having these problems, I received a recall notice for brakes. Here is the timeline of my brake problems. 10/14/2019$422.96firestone replaced brake pads on front and back 11/2/2019 aaa towed lincoln back to firestone for brake failure 11/2/2019 firestone replace calipers and pads on rear left 11/3/2019 firestone brake pedal too soft 3/5/2020 aaa towed lincoln back to firestone for brake failure 3/5/2020 firestone states air getting into brake line 4/22/2020$77.50aaa tows lincoln to jones service center (car dealership) total brake failure, [xxx] membership fee 4/22/2019$1,623.95jones service center replace ABS hydralic unit 4/22/2019$30.00rental car from jones $2,154.41total expenses I have attached the documentation as listed above. Consequently, losing your brakes on I-95 is a very frightening experience, especially when going at a high rate of speed. I had two near misses on having a serious accident during brake failure with my lincoln. I had to have the car towed 3 times which cost me a day of work each time because the car was not drivable.

This recall came out on december 18,2019! It is a safety recall and still hasn't been resolved?! This is unacceptable!!!!! Here is a copy of some of the report: the federal safety agency recall number: opens new window takes away from VIN lookup section> 19v904 recall date: december 18, 2019 manufacturer recall number: 19s54 summary: on your vehicle, a valve in the hydraulic control unit of the anti-lock braking system may be stuck open. Safety risk: this may result in extended brake pedal travel required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. The condition does not result in a loss of braking function and the vehicle can be brought to a controlled stop.
On several occasions while owning this car, the brake pedal has gone almost to the floor after activation of the anti-lock brakes. The braking distance increases dramatically while the pedal remains very soft. It eventually (a few hours maybe) returns to normal function. While driving in this condition, it feels as if the car will not stop but it eventually does, but the brake pedal must be pushed almost all the way to the floor.
Tl* the contact owns a 2009 ford mkz. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 MPH the braking system failed when pressing the brake pedal causing the vehicle to crash into the rear of a commercial truck. During the crash no injuries were reported. A police report( [xxx]) was taken at the scene and the vehicle was towed away. The vehicle damage was repaired but brake failures continued. After retrieving the vehicle the brake failure continue and the brake was spongy causing the braking distance to be extended. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer colminger ford(5011 jake alexander blvd s. Salsbury nc) on several occasions for the brake failure. The ABS module and braking assembly and control (y) were all replaced but the failures continued to occur. The contact recently received a recall notice for the federal safety agency recall campaign number 19v904000(braking system). The manufacturer([xxx]) was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 88,096. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Nothing yet! Are we going to wait until something does?! Safety risk!!! Taking way too long to get this resolved!!! This may result in extended brake pedal travel required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. The condition does not result in a loss of braking function and the vehicle can be brought to a controlled stop.
After ABS activation on a snowy road, break pedal needs much longer travel to engage brakes than before the ABS went off. Pedal feels spongy and requires much greater distance before the brakes feel like they begin to apply. Multiple ABS stops, 100 mile of travel and a day of not driving it have not made the problem any better. Car is 2009 mkz with 81000 miles.
Unintentional acceleration incident report 2009 lincoln mkz, VIN: [xxx] the car was purchased by its present owner in june 2012 after it came off lease with 26334 miles. Since that time, the vehicle has been well maintained by lincoln automotive dealerships and now has 85447 miles on it. It has had four (4) incidents of unintended acceleration.
