In March of 2023, my husband's car was difficult to steer & the power steering fluid was leaking from the car. He took the car to Napleton Lincoln in ************, ********. My husband was told he needed a new rack, pinion and other parts which was a total of *******. We were called & informed the repairs would take longer because the first rack and pinion was already broken while being installed. The second rack and pinion was installed & the car was fixed & ready to be picked up on 3/28/2023. Half way to work on 3/28/2023, the car started to leak power steering fluid & was difficult to steer again. He turned the car around and took the car back to Napleton Lincoln the same day. My husband missed work. We were told that the rack and pinion had to be replaced again (this is the 3rd rack and pinion). When the car was ready on 4/3/23, I picked the car up and the car was steering to the the right. I turned around after 2 blocks and took the car back. I was then told that the tires needed to be replaced. We replaced the tires and the car continued to slightly steer to the right. On May 5th, the car was difficult to steer and leaking fluid again. The car was returned to Napleton Lincoln and we were informed that the rack and pinion had to be replaced again and the hose/ tube to the rack and pinion were broken or pinched and needed to be replaced. The service coordinator told my husband on arrival that they will have a more experienced tech working on the car this time. ************************* the service manager at Napleton said we now have a new problem: the rack and pinion was under warranty and we now need to pay $900 more for the hose. I did not trust Napleton to fix the car again nor did I think we needed to pay another $900. I then took the car to ***************** Lincoln: they said the hose/tube was likely pinched during one of the 3 times the rack and pinion was changed and apparently the tech did not see it which voided the warranty altogether. ****** gave us the wrong info.Initial Complaint

My name is *******************, I purchased a 2017 Lincoln MKZ Reserve from Napleton River Oaks Lincoln dealership on June 11th 2022, this car has been in the shop more than I could enjoy driving it. 1st I was experiencing a very unstable ride which I found that there were four different brands of tires on the car and the check engine light came on, I called the service department addressing my issue they had me bring it in they initially tried to over charge me for some new tires stating we could half and half on the purchase which was $600 I was suppose to pay when I saw they were a generic brand Advanta and searched the pricing of that particular brand at $119.00 I was outrage and the solution to the check engine light they said they replaced the spark plugs for the misfire diagnostic problem, July 11th I had to bring the car back for the check engine light coming on again that's when I was informed that I needed a new engine I didn't get my car back until September, I was provided a loaner for which one I had to return due to something wrong with it, in November of the same year 2022 I was driving my car and kept getting nauseous from the smell of anti freeze I took the car back to Napleton and was informed I needed a water pump, I picked my vehicle up two days later and when retrieving the car I was told I would smell the anti freeze until it ***** off, well weeks went by and I'm still smelling the anti freeze and I did mention to the service department that I'm losing anti freeze somewhere but it's not on the ground, I was told to monitor it and if it gets low to call and schedule it to come in for servicing, now I have barely any heat in my car I drove from work a 45 minute drive with cold air blowing and at sometimes very little heat. I'm very displeased and angry with what I'm going through with this vehicle and I feel Napleton should work with me getting out of this vehicle that I'm paying a very high car note on that's paid on time every month and offer me something else.Initial Complaint

I purchased my vehicle in 2019 July. Since I have had the driveshaft replaced, rear differential axle, oil pressure switch, sunroof motor replaced twice, water pump and now the service engine light is on with code ****. I took the car to ********** today because Napleton's appointments are months in advance. I have a service engine light on that needs to be checked. No one seems to know what's wrong ***** at *** said he saw the light and code but doesn't know what's wrong. I also understand *** has a recall on the engine 4 cylinder not 6 ridiculous. I am out of $948 from enterprise because the light is on and no one can tell me why. I am on disability and have a$478 car note that I pay on time every month. I would like to to have this engine replaced on something comparable. I have spent a lot of money of money on this car. If nothing but the $250 deductible everytime something went wrong. I'm so totally frustrated I have to ride around with no clue with the service engine light on.sBusiness response

The diagnosis and charges from a different dealer have nothing to do with our store. Until the car is diagnosed at our store, we have no idea what the outcome may be and won't take the diagnostic work of a different dealership into account. We're happy to work with ************** on any concerns she may have but diagnosis and charges from another store are out of our control.Customer response
