WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND APPROACHING A STOP SIGN THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. I LOST ALL ENGINE POWER, BRAKES, AND STEERING CAPABILITIES., ETC WITH NO WARNING. LUCKILY NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE NEAR ME AT THE TIME. I WAS ABLE TO ROLL BACKWARDS IN NEUTRAL TO A SOMEWHAT SAFE LOCATION OFF THE ROAD. SEVERAL DAYS AFTER THAT IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND HAD JUST STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THEN IT WARNED LOW OIL PRESSURE AND THEN JUST SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT'S NOT LOW. OIL LEVEL IS PERFECT. AFTER SOME QUICK ONLINE RESEARCH I FOUND MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER LINCOLN OWNERS. UNEXPECTED ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND WITH NO WARNING. SCARY AND VERY UNSAFE TO SAY THE LEAST. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND THEY SAID THIS IS THE FIRST...
ON I35, DRIVING 70, VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION COMPLETELY AND WE WERE ABLE TO COAST TO SHOULDER, CAR STILL RUNNING. WARNING LIGHT LOW OIL PRESSURE CAME ON AS WELL AS SYDTEM TRANS ALERT. WHEN PUT IN GEAR WOULD GO 10 YARDS, WOULD QUIT.
I'M EXPERIENCING SOME LINKAGE OF FLUID FROM UNDERNEATH MY CAR THAT HAS TO DO WITH MY FRONT END AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN'T FIX IT BUT IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE COST IS WAY TO MUCH. PLEASE HELP! AND THERE IS NO GIVEN REASON WHY!
