Lincoln navigator stalling at random times and at random speeds...no warning lights to alert me of problem. This vehicle has been in three times for the same problem...and was just towed in for the fourth time, same problem.the vehicle has a serious safety defect and I am refusing to drive it. Dealer cannot pinpoint the problem and admitted that there is some sort of unknown computer glitch. Both the dealer and ford motor co have made this process very difficult and I am demanding a full refund under the lemon law.
