  Wrench light came on a few times when I checked it the codes were p2135 and p0122 and p1576 car didnt accelerate It happen again one time and then it was letting me accelerate but it was very limited

• 12/20/2019· SERVICE BRAKES

  ONE EVENING I GOT INTO MY CAR AND WAS HEADING HOME FROM WORK WHEN I USED THE BRAKES AND THEY WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAD NO BRAKES. THE PART I REPLACED WAS THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE CONTROL UNIT. IT COST ME ALMOST 700.00 TO REPAIR. I HAVE THE PROPER PAPERWORK IF YOU NEED TO SEE THE REPAIR ORDER. PRETTY IRONIC THAT THE RECALL WILL BE COMING OUT BUT THEY SAY MY CAR WASN'T AFFECTED. I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SEVERE ACCIDENT. I AM LOOKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT ON THE MONEY I SPENT. LINCOLN HAS DONE A GREAT JOB WITH ALL OTHER ISSUE THAT HAVE COME UP.THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I'M SURE YOU WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT.

TO DATE THEY HAVE NEVER CONTACTED US. RECEIVED A NOTICE ABOUT CHAPTER 11 CASE # 17-11375 CONCERNING AIRBAGS. LOOKED UP CAR INFORMATION ON NHTSA SITE AND CONFIRMED CAR HAD RECALL FOR AIRBAG. CALLED BIG VALLEY FORD IN STOCKTON CA. AT 1-800-871-8112 AND WAS TOLD THAT UNTIL SOMEONE TAKES OVER AIRBAG BUSINESS THEY HAVE NO AIRBAGS AVAILABLE TO REPLACE OUR CURRENT DEFECTIVE AIRBAG. THIS WAS LEFT ON OUR VOICE MESSAGE SYSTEM YESTERDAY 11/15/17 AT 4:27PM BY JACKIE AT BIG VALLEY FORD (209-870-4361). MY QUESTION IS WHAT DO WE DO NOW AND HOW DO WE GET THIS DANGEROUS DEFECT FIXED?

HOPEFULLY WE WILL NEVER BE IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE THE KNOWN DEFECTIVE AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED.
