The front dashboard is continually peeling up. it has become warped and i'm afraid it may completely peel up while i'm driving. i wholeheartedly feel that these automobiles should be recalled and the problem dealt with appropriately. lincolns are suppose to be upscaled american luxury cars so how do they produced such a car with mediocre workmanship? i've priced new front dashboards and they can range in the $1200-$1500 range, used $300-$400 without installation. i love my lincoln but this is unacceptable. someone needs to address this problem before someone dies! *tr
