NHTSA complaint: 2003 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR — EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL
ON 7/31 I HAD A TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM FAULT ERROR AND TOOK IN FOR PROBLEM TO BE FIXED. ON 8/17 WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE I WAS SHOVED INTO STEERING WHEEL AS FAR UP AS IT WOULD GO AND MIRRORS WERE GOING CRAZY ON OUTSIDE. I 'M THREE MONTHS PREGNANT AND I ALREADY LOST 2 OF THE 3 TRIPLETS I FOUND OUT ON 8/25. NOT SURE IF THIS IS WHY OR NOT. ON TOP OF THAT HAD ANOTHER TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM FAULT ERROR. THEY PUT ON MACHINE AND FOUND 7 ERROR CODES AND SAID THEY FIXED, IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO BRING IT BACK. ON 8/30 THE LIGHTS WENT NUTS, THE BACK LIFTGATE ALMOST CRUSHED ME IN IT. LUCKILY, I GOT MY HEAD OUT FROM THE BOTTOM JUST IN TIME BEFORE GATE CLOSED. THE SENSORS/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WERE NOT WORKING. THIS IS MAJOR TO ME, IF ONE OF MY CHILDREN HAD BEEN BACK THERE AND DIDN'T THINK FAST ENOUGH - I CRINGE TO THINK THAT THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I HAVE A CASE OPEN WITH FORD RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK. I'M SO SCARED TO GET THIS VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE THAT LIFT GATE COULD HAVE KILLED ME AND WHAT IF I GET THIS BACK AND THEY FIX THESE 5 ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THEY ARE WORKING ON NOW AND THEN I FIND OUT THE HARD WAY THAT THERE ARE MORE. IT SEEMS THEY FIX ONE PROBLEM AND I HAVE MORE. IT'S LIKE ONE FIX AND IT TRIGGERS MORE. PLEASE ASSIST ME ANYWAY POSSIBLE. I RESEARCHED AND ACCORDING TO OHIO LAW THEY HAVE ONE OPPORTUNITY TO FIX THE LIFTGATE AND IF IT DOESN'T THEN IT IS A LEMON. HOWEVER, I'M AFRAID THEY AREN'T GOING TO BE ABLE TO FIX THE ELECTRICAL MESS IN THIS VEHICLE. ALL I WANT IS MY PURCH
