The 2018 Lincoln MKT has 3 recalls, the most serious involving rear suspension toe links that can fracture and cause a sudden, unpredictable change in handling, raising the risk of a crash. This recall only affects vehicles equipped with the Police Interceptor or SHO Performance Pack.
Two other recalls cover separate concerns. The rearview camera can display a distorted, flickering, or blank image when the vehicle is in reverse, reducing the driver's view of what is behind the car. On the interior side, the B-pillar door trim panels on the driver and front passenger sides can detach while the vehicle is moving and fall onto the road, creating a hazard for other drivers.
