It has been six months since I purchased my 2019 Lincoln Continental Black Label with the 3.0L, and I love every minute I spend in it – When it’s not in the shop… I must admit that I’ve got a few issues, and I wonder if anyone here in our Lincoln community has had any of the same.
I first noticed a paint defect on the driver door crease just above the Continental badge, right where the sheet metal creases at a flat angle. The dealership took just one look at the blemish and repaired it under warranty. No questions asked.
My second trip to the dealership was in September when I noticed about half a gallon of water sloshing around in the spare tire well. It was obviously fixed under warranty. The car was expected to be in the shop for a while as the weather seal was on backorder. Luckily, they found one at a dealership in Texas, so I got my car back sooner than expected.
Now my 3rd trip to the shop will be for a bubble that I’ve noticed in the dash. In the area on the driver’s side where we have the hump over the instrumentation, I’ve noticed a separation of the leather from the dash on the right side. It’s obvious there wasn’t enough glue used in the manufacturing process, so now the dash top needs to be replaced. I’ve had similar issues on another vehicle before, and the whole dash needed to be removed, so they could replace the top portion. Oy…
Hopefully, there are no more issues to come. I know the dealership is getting tired of seeing my face, and the feeling is mutual... Has anyone had similar issues, or do you want to share anything completely different? Other than the trunk leak, everything has been cosmetic. But still, it’s an annoyance on an otherwise excellent vehicle.
Thanks for sharing!
