Offered is my originally purchased 2007 Lincoln Designer Town Car which is smoke and pet free. Options on car: Cashmere Paint, WSW Tires, 6 CD Radio, Power Moon Roof, HID Headlamps and California Emissions. Many standard items on this car including 17" chrome wheels, fog lights, upgraded leather, adjustable rear headrests, heated front seats, dual-zone auto climate control, adjustable brake/gas pedals, full power open/close trunk lid + many more. Car was never involved in any accident or had paint work done to it nor smoked in. The paint is 100% original except for a few very minor touch ups. This is a turn key car meaning there are no known problems. This car has NEVER been exposed to rock salt, snow or ice, therefore there is no rot. Interior and trunk lighting has been upgraded to white LEDs. This can revert back to factory style lighting easily. There is an external transmission FL1 oil filter installed to make sure the transmission  fluid is clean. I used Mobil 1 engine oil from day one. When I changed/flushed the transmission fluid, I used Mobil 1 synthetic transmission fluid. I kept this car under a severe usage maintenance schedule due to some dust in my area.  Most likely that was not required but I wanted to be sure. The air filter was changed every 10,000 miles--far earlier than the usual 30,000 miles. I have included my maintenance records to show what and when service was done. The great thing is that I did NOT purchase my car with a factory installed navigation system! Ford/ Lincoln no longer supports that system, meaning NO MAP UPDATES are available. Beware of these cars with the navigation systems as they only have old maps. If you have question about this car, ask me a question as I am the original owner. *****You can make arrangements and pay for a professional to inspect this car as I have nothing to hide. Since I did some road trips, I installed a full size spare tire--it's on a non chrome Town Car wheel. The factory donut spare tire is also present and all tires are filled with nitrogen. Interior windows were tinted and rear windows had vent covers on them--easy to remove if you don't like them. No personal items that are visible in photos are included. I can store car at my location for a few weeks if paid in full. For out of State purchaser, arrangements can be made for your pick up at the SkyHarbor, Phoenix AZ Airport. You must have a PayPal account to bid on this vehicle. Just added two photos of a new replacement driver's lower seat cushion cover that will become part of this offer. Back in 2007 I ordered a new seat cover as the driver's seat bottom usually receives the most wear. Right now it doesn't pay to replace it, but in the future it might be required. The value of this cover was $250 in 2007 and is no longer available. Due to a question asked about the paint being shiny, I added the last four photos. There is no damage to the car as the photos were taken to show reflections in the shiny paint. There are two ways to answer that question, #1 with added photos and my description with photos or #2 hire a professional to inspect the car. I've been an eBay seller for over ten years with a 100% feedback rating. A 2007 Designer Town Car being sold by the only/original owner with posted maintenance records is hard to find.

Cabin Air Filter--non factory

When the windshield was replaced, I noticed a tray/area for an intake cabin air filter. You must remove the passenger side vent covering in the engine compartment . There are two long plastic screws. I used a filter for the 1999-2010 Jeep Cherokee, it had to be cut down length wise to fit in the 3" X 13" tray. I over cut it first to see how it would fit. You must take a little more off the forward edge. The following filters work: Fram CF10363, WIX 24903 or NAPA 4903 which I was able to locate.

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected

Thu, 29 May 2014

Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."

Ford recalls 2017 Lincoln Continental for headlight problem

Tue, Oct 11 2016

Ford Motor Co. is already recalling the 2017 Lincoln Continental for a headlight problem, the automaker announced Tuesday. The HID headlights may have been assembled with LED lens that don't have the correct lens optics to meet federal visibility requirements for turn signals. Ford says it is unaware of any accidents related to the issue. The company will replace the headlamp assemblies, if needed. The safety compliance recall covers 1,876 Continentals built from June 14 to Sept. 23 at Ford's Flat Rock factory south of Detroit. Most of the cars are in the United States; 49 are in Canada, and one is in a federalized territory. Only about 300 cars are in consumers' hands, a spokesperson said. Customers can use a Lincoln service program where dealers will pick up their Continental, fix it for free, and return it, the spokesperson said. Lincoln has high hopes for the Continental. The flagship sedan uses one of Lincoln's most iconic names and features a luxurious interior, available 400-horsepower V6 engine, and safety features like adaptive cruise control and a 360-degree camera. Lincoln recently announced an elaborate marketing campaign shot by renown photographer Annie Leibovitz to generate interest in the Continental. In a separate recall, Ford also said Tuesday that 60 Edges from the 2015-16 model year are being recalled to update their antilock braking system module.

NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

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.'"
