Air suspension does not work in cold weather below 45 degrees you loose control and bounces have owned car since 2006 lived in fl and had no problems moved to ny and have problem every time temp drops below 45 have spent thousands for repairs that didnt work ckecked internet and found out it a problem with 2003-2006 and nobody can fix including ford
Air suspension does not work / inflate when car is cold, there sometimes no warning that the shocks are down and could make driving dangerous . Making car uncontrollable when the car will roll over bumps or uneven terrain please issue a recall for all navigators since 2003 or older with air suspesion shock does not inflate when stationary / does not inflate when in motion tire rubs on fender wall making turns, there is completely no shock absorption when car is on freeway or on surface which makes cehicles very unstable and could cause major accidents if driven by inexperienced or experienced drivers
Engine starts to knock an shake very loudly while coming to a complete stop from simply driving 45mph or it completely lloses all power as I'm driving an a loud poppig explosions coming from the exhuast an they are loud enough were people hehhave pulled up next to me to let me know an afraid the car may blow up. Air suspension dose not come on when it's cold an drives very poorly an misleading to other drivers an law enforcement since I've been pulled over for possible dui because the car is all over the place an jumpy. The radio cuts in an out as I drive, the cruise control doesn't work. I've taken it to 3 different mechanics they all say the same thing take it to the dealer because they can't seem to figure it out. So I took it to galpin lincoln in van nuys, ca on roscoe blvd an sepulveda an they just found one fuel injector needing replaced an wanted me to $2,500 for labor alone to completely open up my engine an see if it could possibly be the timing chain an realine the camshafts but they are not certain that's actually the problem with my navigator because they can completely do all that an come up to be fine an be something else but unless I pay $2,500 for labor to just see if it is an have the chance it could not be I still lose those $2,500 because it's a non refundable. Where am I going to come up with that kind of money not alone why am I having to pay that first to see if it's a maybe the reason of all my car problems. Honestly that is ridiculous an not going to pay that kind of money on a maybe answer not a 100 percent we are sure that's the problem. Something needs to give an heaven forbid my car does blow up with my son's in the car driving it just because I needed to pay that amount on a maybe answer is un called for.
The air suspension system fails to work when cold. Its very bouncy and hard to drive safely. I have replaced the height sensors. I've spent over $5000 on repairs in the past 6 months. It still isn't fixed. I've seen numerous complaints on the internet about the same suspension problems. This is a faulty design. This needs to be recalled.
