The 2026 Lincoln Corsair has 5 recalls, the most serious involving fire and rollaway risks: a high-voltage battery defect on plug-in hybrid models can cause an internal short that cuts drive power or starts a fire, a cylinder head oil leak can ignite near hot engine components, and a faulty park mechanism can fail to hold the vehicle in place and allow it to roll away.
On the occupant safety side, the rear seatbelt retractors on both passenger seats may not be properly secured to the vehicle, meaning the belts could fail to restrain rear passengers in a crash. There is also a visibility concern where air bubbles in the windshield glass can obstruct the driver's sightlines.
