1998 Lincoln Navigator transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 16 of 16, newest first, as owners wrote them.
While driving at highway speeds the transmission on my navigator went out and caused me to almost be killed on the ohio turnpike. This happened 3 times and all the dealer could do was insult me. I hope that no one else has this problem b/c if it weren't for my driving ability I would be sending this from the grave!!!!
In attempt to fix problem dealer balanced tires, replaced tires and channged drive shaft twice. Lincoln customer assistances said there was something not right but could do nothing. The viabration is becoming more violent with age and I am concerned that the viabrating part come loose and that myself or a passen be injured. Ford engineers know there is a problem. Fix the problem, explain the problem vouch ang for the saftey of the vehicle when operating at 62 MPH a the viabration is present??
Vehicle experienced traction control problem causing vehicle to spin 180 degrees.(attorney for consumer).
While turning a corner in the rain the vehicle did a 360 degree turn around and ended up facing oncoming traffic. Also when the vehicle takes off on an incline the tires just spin and the vehicle does not move. Manufacturer says . *ak
While driving in rain at 60 MPH car started to hydroplane, 360 in road, tires have been replaced since the latest incident. During any rain complete traction with the car is lost. Dealer contacted, and are aware of the problem, but cannot duplicate the problem.
