I was driving down the highway at around 70 mph, with one passenger. There had been no indications that anything was wrong with the vehicle. Then I noticed the car slowing down though I had not let up on the gas, which I now understand is called 'limp mode'. The screen said 'service vehicle soon'. It kept slowing down while I carefully pulled to the side of the road. Thankfully I had been in the right lane. This was not a very safe place to be, relatively close to an overpass. I turned off the car and let it rest for a few minutes. Then I started it and tried the gas. It did speed up to about 35 mph, so I kept going to try and get past the area of high traffic and little shoulder. Once I got past the overpass, I pulled over again. I stopped, let it rest and then started up again. Still it only went up to about 35 mph, but I was able to get to an exit and pull into a parking lot. I then called a tow truck and eventually they took the car to the closest Lincoln dealership. After reviewing the car, the dealership's service center said they did not see anything wrong with the vehicle and could not reproduce the issue. They did say that records showed a similar incident had happened in May 2025, under a different owner. They suggested I take the vehicle home and come back if it happened again. Then on July 12th, I was driving down I75 again, this time in the left lane and with my son in the car, and the same thing happened. The car started slowing down and the screen said 'service vehicle soon'. I was able to pull off at the next exit and let the car rest. We happened to be only 1.6 miles from the Lincoln dealership, so I carefully drove the car there and left it since they were closed. They later said that the service bulletin suggested that if they could drive the car 4 times without an issue, they could clear the issue. I looked further into it and found that there is an open recall on the vehicle, with no remedy, Open Safety Recall 25SC4. I do NOT feel safe.

Is 22 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2023 and 2026, roughly 7 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
