2003 Lincoln LS LS review from North America
"Sexy car that is always broken"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil pan leak 55000 miles, with a strong smell of burning oil when running car.
Back of drivers seat fell off, now just hangs there.
Navigation would read CD error, and not eject, or even close face. lights in navigation dim, then brighten, then dim again, making it really distracting. Navigation replaced, 48000 miles, as well as wires and lights. dimming and brightening occuring 54000 miles.
Console air covers pop off when using the air that blows at your face. just falls off.
At 42000 miles, car DROPS into drive. Throws itself into other gears.
General comments?
Great looking car. But the construction is very poor. This being a Lincoln, I feel it should be put together better, the parts put together better.
