2000 Lincoln LS review from North America

My Lincoln LS has just started giving me trouble this year. I purchased the Lincoln in 2001 and have only had to purchase new tires. That was the most I had spend until the back regulator went out.

This year, the Airbag light came on. I took it to the Ford dealer and it cost $209.00. Five days later the light was back on.

I had another issue. The dealer thought that I needed a tune-up, but I told them that I had one recently and it had to be something else. Some coil needed to be replaced at $400, and they called themselves, fixing the airbag again, and in three days the airbag light was back on again. This time they gave me a loaner until they fixed it for the third time.

Six days later the light came back on. I called them to let them know that the airbag was back on, and they told me that the driver's seat would have to be replaced as that housed the main wiring for the driver's airbag. The cost would be $3000 just for the part, not including the labor.

The car has 122,000 miles and Blue Book value is $6700, so why would I pay to have this issue fixed?

I had the car up for sale when the light came on again. I don't know what to do since the gas prices have gone up so high, the car only takes premium, and I drive 78 miles round trip to work each time. I need to get another car, but what do you do with a car that you cannot sell to anyone? Please add me to the lawsuit also.
