| Description of the problem | I own a 2005 lincoln ls, and i have had to replace three coils and plugs just recently, i have an understanding that some of these cars were recalled because of manufacturers defect if they were manufactured at certain plants. I called a dealer and they said my vin number was not one of them, yet i have had the exact problem that they described. My question is why wouldn't they all be all be covered under the recall if i have had to replace three already. It seems to me that these cars should all be manufactured with same parts and have the warranty, here i had to pay to replace the coils and plugs in my car. The dealer did say there was a recall on this problem. |
