 Description of the problemWhile driving the car i was approaching a stopped vehicle at a stop light ahead of me. When i applied the brakes there was what seemed like a surge of power and i put both feet on the brake pedal and it was not going to stop. I bumped the vehicle in front of me quite hard but there was no damage but the driver was quite upset and i do not blame them. On the second occasion my wife was driving the vehicle and when she went to stop an intersection she said the brakes did not do anything and she felt that the engine was getting gas causing it to accelerate and she went right through the intersection. She said that it was a good thing there were no vehicles coming through the intersection or she would have been in an accident. The third incident happened last month when i was in a parking lot and i was pulling up to the curb when i applied the brakes. Again there was a surge of power. I took my foot off the brake pedal and reapplied the brakes and then they engaged but by then i had jumped over the curb. I have discussed this incident with the service manager at the lincoln dealership in dade city florida and with the service manager at the lincoln dealership in greenville michigan when i took my car today for a recall that i received in the mail about problems with the steering system and rust. I was told today that there has been no recall on brake issues and there was nothing wrong with the brakes at this time. This is our michigan car now and we are in michigan from may to november. We will be going to florida on november 18, 2013.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success.
