1994 Lincoln Town Car Signature review from North America
"Best American (Canadian) car value on road"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I replaced rear air shocks at 150,000 miles. The right rear door lock actuator has been replaced twice. The right rear window regulator/motor has been replaced once. All other manufacturer-recommended maintenance has been performed at recommended intervals. The Lincoln has one nagging problem my mechanic has not been able to correct: After warming up, as car shifts into the overdrive gear at low speeds (40-50MPH), the car often jerks, like it is jumping time or cutting out. All fuel system and air system parts have been maintained or replace, but problem continues.
General comments?
At 130,000 the transmission had a shuttering/grinding noise as it shifted into overdrive. Dealer service corrected problem with complete fluid change and transmission lubricant.
