Lincoln LS Recalls
Summary
On this vehicle, the fuel tank may have a localized thin wall section in the lower half of the fuel tank. The fuel tank may crack, creating a potential for a fuel leak and fuel odour. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Correction: Dealer will replace the fuel tank.
Summary
Affects certain vehicles equipped with 17" chrome wheels. Of the 275 wheels with heat treatment lot code B1706; approximately 74 may have missed heat treatment during production. Chrome wheels that are not heat-treated, over time, may crack at the wheel hub lug-nut holes and which may result in a loss of lug-nut torque that could ultimately result in wheel separation. Correction: Dealer will replace wheels with heat treatment lot number B1706.
Summary
On certain vehicles, the front suspension lower ball joints may not have been tightened to specifications during manufacture. This could result in loosening of the attaching nuts and, ultimately result in a fracture of the ball joint stud. This could adversely affect vehicle control and a crash could occur. Should the left side ball joint fracture, the wheel and tire could contact the fuel lines or the fuel filter potentially resulting in fuel leakage. Correction: Ball joint torque will be inspected and vehicles with loose ball joints will either have the fasteners tightened to specification or if necessary, the ball joints will be replaced.
Summary
Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The output voltage of 9.6 volts to the headlamp high beam system during DRL (Daytime Running Lamps) operation results in a brightness exceeding the requirement of the regulation. Correction: Dealers will install a revised Front Electronics Module (FEM).
