Lincoln seat belt problems

Owners have filed 352 complaints with NHTSA about the seat belts on Lincoln vehicles — 2% of everything reported about the brand, across 17 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Lincoln Town CAR, worst in 2006.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
