P0016 code came up.. lincoln advises repair will be over $5000.00 to fix and i should trade in and get new car. just made last payment and car only has 66, 000 miles on it. p0016 is part of class action lawsuit. water pump is leaking on timing chain which will eventually seize engine.
I had heard a wheezing noise in the front end so i took the car to my mechanic. he was unable to find a problem. a week after while driving the car i was driving and as i turned the car completely shut down. two days later it began to not drive properly i took the car back to the mechanic and said i had a bad sensor but the water pump was going bad. he stated it shouldn't go bad in this newer of a car. my car has been undrivable ever since. i've called around to get it fixed as though it seems nobody has the proper tools to fix this issue due to the fact the whole engine needs to be removed to fix the problem.
