2017 Lincoln CONTINENTAL - STRUCTURE:BODY Failure Complaint (#b17f8a)

2017 Lincoln CONTINENTAL

• Date of Incident: Dec-20, 2024
• Date complaint filed: Dec-26, 2024
• Failed components: STRUCTURE:BODY

Recall 19v-077 was performed in 2019. On 12/20/24 the passenger front door was closed and is now unable to open again from the inside or outside. A message is displayed on the dash stating "passenger front door open". Called lincoln corporate support and spoke with elaine, she told me the recall has already been performed, and cannot be performed again under any type of warranty or extension as the recall had a cutoff date and has "expired". No parts warranty on the superseded parts either. Told me i will have to come out of my pocket for diagnosis and repairs of the faulty parts installed under their safety recall. Considering the door is not fully latched and can just randomly open on its own given the right conditions this is neglect for my safety and other drivers or pedestrians on the road that may be near the moving vehicle if the door were to open on its own.
