• 11/01/2002· SUSPENSION

  I PURCHASED MY LINCOLN NAVIGATOR IN 1998. THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THAT THE AIRBAGS FILLED UP WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO TO SWERVE. THE SUSPENSION STAYS IN THE UP POSITION. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED ONCE AND IT COST ME $500.00 DOLLARS. WHEN THE AIRBAGS FILL WITH AIR THE TRUCK IS RAISED IN THE REAR TO A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING HEIGHT THAT SHIFTS MOST OF THE WEIGHT OF THE TRUCK ONTO THE FRONT WHEELS. THE FIRST TIME I ENCOUNTERED THIS PROBLEM WAS AT 55000 MILES AND NOW AT 96500 THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURED AGAIN. I'M SURE THE DEALER WILL NOT REPAIR MY $50,000.00 VEHICLE WITHOUT CHARGE, BUT I'M STILL HEADED FOR THE DEALERSHIP NEXT WEEK TO GET THE PROBLEM CORRECTED BECAUSE IT IS TO UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THE CONDITION IT IS IN NOW.
