Lincoln tire problems

Owners have filed 389 complaints with NHTSA about the tires on Lincoln vehicles — 2% of everything reported about the brand, across 21 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Lincoln Navigator, worst in 1998.

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.
