Vehicle suddenly dies when driving without warning. I purchased the vehicle one month ago. Brougt it to the dealer for the bolt recall and stalled while dealer was trying to pull it into the bay. After that point, the vehicle died while drivng on numerous occasions. Went to the mechanic one two occasions and no codes pulled. Called dealer and they said I needed to go to a Ford dealer. Went to Ford dealer one code pulled (fuel injector) was replaced recommended I change transmission fluid and replace battery which I agreed to. Forty minutes after leaving dealer as I was oulling out of a parkign lot the car suddenly died again almost causing me to be hit by a box truck behind me. The car is back at the dealer and once again no codes are coming up and they said they cannot duplicate the issue. Went onto Mkz forums and this appears to be a problem not addressed which is causing a significant safety concern for both myself and others since there are no answers to why this is happening.

Dtc code P188B - AWD clutch control circuit AWD system malfunction, AWD turned off during driving normal mode. Restart the car the AWD system is back on, dealer cannot fix it unless you get to them with the malfunction light on. Managed few times to bring it to them while under warranty, they changed two times the AWD module the fault still returns. The dealer still says that is fixed when obviously is not.

Outer bearing failure in transmission resulting in metal-to-metal bearing destruction and according to Ford technicians once complete failure occurs would cause the vehicle to abruptly stop when driving. Ford-Lincoln issued a technical service bulletin for this issue but there has been no customer notification or voluntary recall for my specific vehicle VIN but it is my understanding that there was a recall for this issue for other Ford and Lincoln for this problem to replace the transmission. The only resolution is a complete replacement of the transmission as the transmission can not be repaired. The old core transmission was required to be sent back to Ford-Lincoln. The factory transmission is warrantied for 60,000 miles and in my specific case the vehicle had 110,000 miles. The replacement transmission is believed to have engineering changes to preclude this bearing failure and has a warranty of 100,000 miles. The chief concern is that Ford-Lincoln is well aware of the pending transmission failure so much that they issued an internal tsb addressing the issue, but not so concerned to send any correspondence to owners of vehicles containing this transmission and the potential consequences should it fail, which apparently could be catastrophic and life-threatening to occupants and potentially other vehicles driving in close proximity. Also, in speaking to a customer service representative on their national call line for concerns, the agent was certain I did not have a transmission subject to failure, even though there was the tsb in effect which I mentioned above. She indicated that did not relate to my vehicle when I questioned her further. Both Ford mechanic and a certified mechanic not associated with Ford both indicated the transmission in my Lincoln was associated with the tsb for transmission failure. Photo info on defective transmission attached.

New 2014 Lincoln Mkz hybrid bought on 12/12/14 goes into gear while in park without pressing brake and with blinking green light on (accessory mode & not drive). From initial purchase 9now 9 months ago) this happened about a couple of dozen times - there are witnesses (including passengers riding in the car) when this has happened. Car is dangerous at 0 mph. Ford/Lincoln apparently had a recall on Mkz hybrids for this problem supposedly for models mfg. In Mexico (thru Oct. 2013 ?)......well this one car was missed. Vehicle has been back to the dealer 3 times now but this safety problem still persists.

The contact owns a 2014 Lincoln Mkz hybrid. The contact stated during the winter, the transmission would shift gears to low independently. Also, the contact stated that without the vehicle being on, the transmission shifted out of park and rolled away. As a result of the failure, the vehicle crashed into a barrier. The contact was made aware of recall NHTSA campaign id number 13V594000 (power train). However, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.
