Ball joint bolts loosen or don't tighten to specifications which causes a lot of wear and tear on the front end of my vehicle. I've had to have them replaced twice and tightened up or re-fixed several times it's unsafe at time. I take chances of my life safety. I mostly have had problems on the regular streets and to afraid at most times to even think about getting on a highway.

I have a 2000 Lincoln Ls 3.9L V8 with approximately 115,000 miles and I have been experiencing unintended acceleration in my vehicle. Although the experience is different than the Toyota that accelerated to 100+ mph it may be able to provide some insight upon what is going on with the current problem at hand. First I have to note that my vehicle does not have a check engine light on and seems to be in good working order being that I drive it every day to and from school. I am very attached to my car and service it regularly. When I start my car put it in gear and press on the gas the car will start to rev uncontrollably and accelerate, I have to jam on the breaks to stop the vehicle while this is happening. When I jam the transmission into park the car continues to rev without input from me but the acceleration stops. The car has been to the dealership for a fuel injection service because I thought it may be the throttle getting stuck. To no avail it didnt solve my problem and I hope it can provide some insight to save lives.

I believe my 2000 Lincoln Ls is unsafe to drive do to the fact that the shifting is erratic. This car has actually cut out on me several times, on the highway all lights, power steering, brakes everything and gave me an error message. The message stated gear shifting error. My dealer doesn't know what to do. Why are they are registered as a Lincoln dealer if they can't fix Lincoln?

Purchased my 2000 Ls in October of that year. In 2001 had to have regulator on back passenger window replaced. Since then 2 more back window regulators have also been replaced at cost of approx. $700. Had to have coil replaced. Car has always hesitated shifting into reverse. At 40 mph car runs roughly, shakes. In June this year car would not start after shutting off. Some computer valve sticking; dealership told my husband to take a rock and hit it to free it up so car will start. Several times car would not start at all for no apparent reason. Called dealership about ball joint noise under front of car; they said nothing wrong. Front passenger door drains plugged --- door filled with water that sloshed when coming to a stop. Called dealership(s) --- no help. Called Lincoln hotline - no help. They said it was a 5 year old what do we expect!
