Lincoln LS: Brakes

Re: brakes on a 2006 ls lincoln [jandpvm]

BikerBoy44, My 2004 Lincoln LS V8 sport with 42,000 miles recently had the 'Check AdvanceTrac" warning come on. It went on and off for about a week.

Interestingly, after heavy rains ... Read More...

Hello, I am sorry to hear that you took the car back. However, you can find another one in the price range of $14,000 to $21,000 with less than 20,000 miles on it if you shop around. I purchased an 2003 with only 14,000 original miles and only owe $5,900 after trading in a 2006 Ford Fusion SE (38,000 miles) with trade-in value of $14,000. Just search for one on the Internet ...

I left my lights on for a whole 24 hours, then I turned them off and they stayed off while driving and they work like they should. I have had no problem since with them.. My garage saw it happen before and could not find anything wrong.. What causes it who knows but that worked for ... Read More...

My 2006 Lincoln LS w only 8000 miles and 2 years from date of manufacture is now on its 3rd battery. When battery voltage dips, I get all kinds of crazy things happening -- headlights flash when starting engine, message center indicates tail lamps burned out (they're not), or parking brake needs service, or advancetrac not working, many others, all false signals. ...
