I have a 2017 Lincoln Continental that started off last year not letting me open one of my back doors from the outside (which I did take to the dealership and got a quote but was too expensive), two weeks ago, it was both back doors not opening from the outside, then last night, the front passenger door stopped opening from the outside. It does not matter if I have the doors locked or not, I cannot open the three doors from the outside. There is a recall for this condition, but not on my VIN. I am worried that I am not going to be able to get into my car at all soon, and this is concerning since I do take my husband and pets with me sometimes. My husband has had triple bypass surgery and if something happened and I could not get to him, this would...

Can't open the passenger side front door from the inside.

The 2017 Lincoln Continental started using electronic door latches. When they fail, there is no way to open the door from the outside other than to break the window. The driver side door is the only door that has an emergency escape latch. If someone is trapped inside the car, even though the door is unlocked, it will not open if the switch is faulty. There is a notice online calling out the issue [XXX] . I believe this is a safety issue because if a child or unconscious passenger is in the vehicle during an accident, the door cannot be opened without breaking the glass. They cost several hundred dollars to fix and should be on the MFR to replace due to safety concerns. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Rear passenger door will not open. Lincoln has active recalls on other VINs but mine is not included. I ask that mine be included. My door will occasionally pop open, but the most common problem is the handle will not engage from the outside. My Lincoln has the door handle on the trim piece. This is a common recall but my car is not included. It needs to be as not being able to open a door or it randomly opening poses threat or harm to myself and my family.

Door latch failed and will not unlock the front passenger door. Dangerous situation if the battery dies. Similar recall but Lincoln said there's nothing they can do only 2019 was recalled for that. Would not make an exception. Dealer was surprised and advised me to report.

THE DOORS ON OUR 2017 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL OPEN WHILE DRIVING. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY CANNOT FIX IT FOR ANOTHER YEAR. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF DOORS OPENING AT TIMES AND NOT UNLOCKING AT TIMES TOO. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AS SOON AS WE FOUND OUT THIS PROBLEM LAST YEAR AND THEY JUST TOLD US TO CALL THIS YEAR, SO WE DID - SO BASICALLY WE HAVE TO WAIT 2 YEARS TO GET OUR LINCOLN FIXED? DOORS OPEN WHILE DRIVING. DOORS WILL NOT LATCH WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY.

OUR VEHICLE'S DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE AND IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE ONGOING ISSUE HAS BEEN PROBLEMATIC FOR VICTORIA SEDAN & LIMOUSINE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP SINCE APRIL 1, 2019, AND HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED EVEN AFTER CONTACTING SERRAMONTE FORD, FORD HEADQUARTERS AS WELL AS LINCOLN CONCIERGE. WE WERE DENIED A LOANER VEHICLE OR ANY SORT OF COMPENSATION FOR TIME LOSS AND THE LACK OF EFFORT IN RESOLVING THIS ISSUE IN A TIMELY MANNER HAS FORCED US TO TAKE A FINANCIAL LOSS, REASSIGN THE CHAUFFEUR WHO HAD THE VEHICLE AND PUT A STRAIN ON OUR OPERATIONS. WHAT MAKES MATTERS WORSE IS THAT WE HAVE LEARNED THAT ONE OF OUR PARTNERS; WITH THE...
