NHTSA Complaint #11416512 — 2007 LINCOLN MKX

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TO THE STORE IN TOWN AT 25 MPH, AND A LIGHT CLANGING STARTED COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR. UPON HEADING BACK TOWARD MY HOUSE THE CAR BEGAN MAKING A LOUDER CLANGING AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOCKED UP. I THOUGH MY CAR WAS SEIZING UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IT DID NOT WANT TO MOVE FORWARD!! IT LOOSENED UP TO MAKE IT THE 2 BLOCKS HOME.WHEN BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY I WAS TOLD ONE OF MY TIRES WAS NOT MOVING AND THE OTHER ONE JUMPED. UPON HAVING THE CAR CHECKED OUT I AM TD THAT OT OS THE PTU CAUSING THE ISSUE. IT IS JUST LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN THIS STARTED. HEAVEN FORBID IF MY CAR WOULD HAVE LOCKED UP LIKE THAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THAT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY AT 65 MPH! THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE FIXED AS THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ISSUE. LETS NOT WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS REAR ENDED INTO OBLIVION BECAUSE OF THE FORD COMPANY FAILING TO BUILD.THESE VEHICLES SAFELY!
