Description of the problem	My 2004 lincoln aviator engine has a burnt valve with less than 90k miles on it. Rich morton lincoln dealership in glen burnie, md says my repair will be $5,400 if i want to fix it, which they do not recommend. I see online that many others have the very same problem with this vehicle. I have also had to tow in my car as several times the gearshift stuck in park and could not be shifted to drive. I spoke with other owners who had the same problem. Also, my tailgate window randomly flies up while driving, just like other owners have reported. My main issue is that my vehicle, an expensive one, is now not drivable and needs the $5,400 repair because of a defect in manufacture that ford will not acknowledge. Help, please.
