In owners' own words
Is all on google this particular vehicle Lincoln Navigator 2019 L have problems on the transmission gear malfunctioningâ¦I barely purchase this exactly model a few days ago and I have this issues concern safety so dealer said is purchase with no warranty but this vehicle have 75000 miles only ⦠we should have the attention on this matter because is safety and costly to repair Power train
Well, the problem is with the transmission. The transmission will lurch, and it also will go into neutral while you are driving down the road, the other thing with the suspension I had repaired. But it said the drive modes were disabled and kept on throwing. Check engine lights. Not to mention, I had to have the cam. Phasers fixed last year, that was another $5000 repair. Power train
Transmission just revs & does not shift gears when try to take off from traffic lights or merge on highway. Shifts gears aggressively at speeds of 30-40 mph. Herky jerky and causes whiplash Lincoln reports fixing issue but I donât think they did Safety issue. Power train
Verbatim from NHTSA filings. Complaints are unverified owner reports.
