Problem overview

Some Lincoln Continental owners report experiencing violent shaking while running in the driveway, which may be attributed to unbalanced wheels or worn-out engine and transmission mounts. This shaking can become more pronounced at low speeds or idle, indicating potential underlying issues. Additionally, some owners experience shaking during acceleration, often linked to misfires or uneven tire wear patterns caused by damaged, underinflated, or misaligned tires. Furthermore, reports of power steering failure include difficulties in turning the steering wheel, whining noises, or a complete loss of power steering assistance, possibly due to leaks in the power steering fluid or a malfunctioning pump. It is crucial for owners to address these symptoms promptly to ensure the safety and proper functioning of their vehicle, and to consult a qualified mechanic for a thorough inspection and diagnosis.
