This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
the steering system locks up and loses power assist, and the brakes and traction control sys also malfunction, and several failure lights all come on, as I was making a left turn in front of a police car the steering locked up and I almost hit the police car, the vehicle isn't driveable, the policeman advised me not to drive the car, he verified the steering didn't work, when the problem occurs the steering gets extremely hard and at the same time lights and bells start ringing in the car and it's very scary because between the steering and brakes not working the bells and lights are very distracting
Power steering randomly locks and unlocks its self, causing the vehicle to pull to the left and displaying difficulty to steer wheel to the right or straight ahead. Brakes seem to lock or slip in certain enviroments at moderate speeds.
The contact owns a 2011 Lincoln Mks. While driving during inclement weather at 60 mph, the front passenger side tire locked whenever the brakes were engaged. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 51,000.
