2004 Ford Navigator caught on fire while parked in the carport. Prior to the fire the consumer read and article about fire occurring in Lincoln Navigator due to faulty cruise control switch. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed the consumer he had nothing to worry about. Two week later the consumer's home and vehicle were destroy by a fire which started in the vehicle.
The consumer went to start the vehicle but the battery was dead. The vehicle was jump started and about ten minutes later while the vehicle was still parked, the consumer smelled smoke in the area of the seat belt panel. Within seconds of smelling smoke the consumer noticed a thick stack of white smoke coming from the drivers seat. The vehicle was towed to a dealer for inspection. The cause had not been determined at this time. The day before the fire the consumer smelled smoke but saw no visible signs of smoke or fire. The fire department stated that a module on the driver's side seat belt area had burned and due to an electrical issue the vehicle must have short circuited thus killing the battery supply.
The 2004 Lincoln navigtor that we purchased has suffered numerous battery failures leading to various electrical problems. At first, the vehicle would not start at all. After numerous attempts to repair and over a week with the dealer, an improperly dealer installed dvd player was the cause. However, immediately after that problem was "fixed" the navigation system failed. Specifically, the screen would "grey" out not allowing any input into the system. After 10-13 minutes, the options would appear for a few sections and then "grey" out again.
Vibration in the front end. Has been in the shop three times. Twice the tires checked and one alignment. Nothing helped. Also the interior lights went out. Bought brand new and has only 6,000 miles.. also the front bumper has water streaks on it that dealer says is manufacture problem due to no clear coat on it.
