You are bidding on a very nice and well maintained 2001 Lincoln Continental. This car is loaded with almost every available option. Options are; Power Windows, Power Door locks, Power Mirrors, Automatic Climate Control With A/C, Cruise Control, Factory Sunroof, AM/FM Stereo With Cassette And Factory Six Disc Trunk Mounted CD Player, Driver and Passenger Power Seat with Power Recliners Tilt Steering, Automatic Day Night Inside Rear View Mirror With Compass, Power Trunk Release, Driver, Passenger and Side Air Bags, Drivers Information Center, Leather Interior and Door Mounted Keyless Entry. Powertrain is the 4.6L DOHC Intec V/8 with 4 Speed Automatic Transmission and perfectly working rear air suspension. I have owned this car for 3 plus years and have driven it 21,000 trouble free miles (currently has 84K miles). On 2 trips from Upstate NY to Virginia I have averaged 26 MPG. My reason for selling this fantastic automobile is it is my wife's car and she recently lost her father who was very fond of it and it now reminds her of him. The only things it currently needs are an A/C compressor which leaks when the A/C is charged but blows perfectly cold air, the fuel release button on drivers door, (currently opens from inside trunk) and a new set of tires in the future. Interior is in excelent condition with no rips in the seats (some normal leather weather checks) no cracks in dash or any door panels, headliner is perfect, carpeting is rip free but could stand to be steam cleaned. Exterior is dent and rust free, paint is very shiny but does have a few scratches here and there, chrome and grille are very nice, all glass is in excellent condition with the exception of some scratches on the passenger side of the windshield (looks like from a faulty wiper blade at some time). The engine and transmission perform flawlessly, brakes are 4 wheel disc in excellent shape with no pulls or pulsation. I have changed the oil and filter on this vehicle every 2500 miles since i have owned it. There is a small oil leak near the front of the oil pan but I do not have to add any oil between changes. The title is a clear NY State title. This car has not been driven in the winter by us and originally came from New York City. THERE IS NO RUST ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THIS CAR!! You can call me on my cell phone (607) 242-4743 between the hours of 6PM and 10PM Eastern time or e-mail me at hvillelincolns@hotmail.com with any questions. If you want to see the car in person before auction's end just let me know and I will show it to you. Car is located in Bainbridge NY which is located approx. halfway between Binghamton and Oneonta. This car is being sold with no warranty though! Buyer is responsible for shipping and pickup. $500.00 Deposit via Paypal within 48 hours of auction close, balance due via cashiers check or cash at time of pickup. Thanks for looking and good luck!

NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe
Mon, 17 Dec 2012According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"

2015 Lincoln Navigator puts on a brave face, offers EcoBoost V6 only
Thu, 23 Jan 2014
Lincoln has finally given its SUV a facelift after seven long years.
Seven years is a long time. For the auto industry, though, seven years is an absolute eternity. Most vehicles receive clean-sheet redesigns within the span of seven years, usually getting a facelift of some sort after year three or four. Not Lincoln.
