| Description of the problem | Aluminum hood and wheels are corroding and mileage is beyond original factory warranty and not covered under the certified pre-owned warranty. On the hood there are several spots where the paint is bubbling. This is a well-document issue with ford products since they started putting aluminum parts on their vehicles. On the wheels, corrosion is appearing under the top coat. The vehicle has less than 66,000 miles on it. These many not be safety issues, but it is a big problem that ford/lincoln should be helping their customers with. |
