Great car, my in laws drove it to Florida always leaving right after Christmas and returning in May to the Jersey Shore. No rust, clean inside. My father in law, a Mechanical Engineer, never believed that "the squeaky wheel gets the grease", all the wheels were greased! Although not the original owners, it appears after the initial investment was made, this vehicle was well maintained and cared for.
Unfortunately. due to health issues, he can no longer drive. The A/C is ice cold, all buttons, switches, knobs are functional. As informed buyers will be aware Lincoln Towncars during that time frame had an issue with the Intake Manifold constructed from plastic that cracked over time resulting in engine coolant leaks. However, having kept a watchful. eye over his pride and joy, he felt uneasy about passing a potential problem and the high cost to a new owner, he decided to have it replaced recently with the new aluminium coolant runner version.
As always my father in law wanted to be upfront. This car is mechanically very sound, and generally looks good other than the following minor cosmetic/ wear and tear issues which could easily be corrected.
The two back taillights have a small piece missing as seen in the pictures---this does not affect their functionality and they are not leaking. On the rear passenger door, there is a 5" by 1/2" section of clear coat missing, as shown in the photo.
The driver's seat and center console are showing cracks.
The rear bumper has small flaking of paint and could be easily repaired..
The front driver's side wheel has some tarnishing.
As the Lincoln Towncar drives like a dream and are renowned for their soft and supple air ride suspension, one of the air bags in the rear suspension had a minor leak. So rather than compromise the luxury ride and feel of the Towncar, by converting to coil springs, he decided to have both air bags replaced 4 weeks ago. This car comes with two new front tires and rear tires that are 85% thread.
This is also for sale locally so I have the right to end this auction at any time. The new owner will receive this car in turn key condition, fully detailed, and serviced with new oil and filter. Serious bidders with positive feedback only. I will work with your shipper and I am open to storing the car for a reasonable time frame if necessary. For the quality and condition of this vehicle, the reserve price is very reasonable. Feel free to call with any questions James---215-970-4820.
Good luck and Happy bidding!

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.

According 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.'"

In the case of Henry Leland, naming his new car brand after the first President he cast a vote for in 1864 seemed a jolly good idea, on paper.
You should always be careful about the name you choose to give your new baby. The power of association can work in many ways, not always positive.
