Consumer Description

2/3/2015 I TOOK MY 2007 LINCOLN MKX IN FOR GAS TANK RECALL. ON NOVEMBER 25,2015 I PICKED MY CAR UP FROM THE DEALER. THE DEALER STATED A NEW TANK WAS INSTALLED. NOVEMBER 27TH I FILLED MY TANK WITH GAS AND WENT APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES BEFORE MY CAR SHUT DOWN WHILE PROCEEDING TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. I TURNED THE IGNITION AND STARTED THE CAR AND DROVE 1 MILE FURTHER TO MY DESTINATION AT A MALL. MY FAMILY EXITED THE CAR AND NOTICED A PERFUSE GAS SMELL COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE TOWARDS THE REAR. MY HUSBAND LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND NOTICED GAS LEAKING. EITHER THE RECALLED TANK WAS NOT REPLACED BY THE DEALER OR THE NEW TANK IS ALREADY LEAKING. THE LEAK IS COMING FROM THE SEAM OF THE FUEL TANK. WHILE THIS IS THE SHORT STORY IT DOES NOT MENTION THE ALL THE DAMAGE OCCURRED TO MY CAR BY SITTING FOR 10 MONTHS AND BEING EXPOSED TO THE HARSH ELEMENTS OF THE SUN, RAIN, SNOW AND THE FACT SOMEONE RAN INTO IT WHILE IN THE DEALERS PROCESSION. MY HEADLIGHTS ARE FADED, PAINT FADED, BRAKES SQUEAL, DEAD BATTERY AND FLAT TIRES. LET'S NOT FORGET IT STILL LEAKS GAS.
