The contact owns a 2015 Lincoln Mkz hybrid. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled several times while driving approximately 30 mph. The wrench icon and check engine indicator illuminated during the failure. The contact was able to move the vehicle onto the road shoulder. The vehicle was towed to island Lincoln Mercury (1850 East merritt island causeway, merritt island, fl, 32952, (321) 233-2636) where it was diagnosed that the transmission control module and power train control module failed. The dealer replaced the power train control, the transmission control module, and accelerator pedal; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer, but the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was then towed to ron norris Ford (3000 cheney highway, titusville, fl, 32780, (321) 267-2112). The dealer performed a diagnostic test and stated that the ignition was started more than three times; therefore, they were unable to locate new failure codes. Ron norris Ford stated that they located the same failure codes as the island Lincoln dealer. Ron norris Ford test drove the vehicle and was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was contacted and proved case number: 17471751. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 30,600.

Some times the rear back-up camera dash board display will turn off while maneuvering in reverse. Sometimes it will turn off to answer the phone, while the car is moving in reverse. And other times it will flicker then return to the home page. The dealer says its working normally and they can't duplicate the problem. However its happened at least a half dozen times since I've owned the car, in the past 2 yrs. The problem seems to happen when the car is moving in reverse usually when backing out of a parking space with parked cars on either side of me. The car has a sony information center and back-up camera and cross traffic alert and speed sensing radar. Other then that the car drives impeccably.

Battery overheats, car stalls and stops multiple times in the middle of the freeway, and twice driving regular side street. Hybrid battery was changed last month under warranty. Car has over 16K miles. Towed 3X to dealership at Lincoln repair shop in henderson nv. Per Lincoln mechanic, this is a flaw on this car and that the Lincoln engineers are not able to offer a fix or a solution as the overheating is being blamed to las vegas summer temp over 110 degrees.the car is still under warranty. Lincoln offered an extended 4 year warranty. Lincoln does not want to bring the car back to the repair shop after the last incident July 31, 2017. I was advised that there is no fix and there is nothing the Lincoln engineers can offer, an dthat the battery will die and stall from high vegas heat.
