The computer system in the car completely shut down on the middle of driving.
Electrical system totally shuts down and car is dead.This happened 4 times.The battery is not dead but the electrical system shuts it down.You have to jump or separate battery to re activate system.Last incident not even emergency key worked to open the car.Danger is if someone is in the car and you cannot get them out.The car was so dead I had to call road service.They towed to dealer.Last time we took to the dealer they said no problem with the car.This time we had to tow and the Lincoln assist driver could not opeit.Definite safety issue if child or animal got locked in by accident someone outside cannot get in even with key ,for the key does not work.Nothing will open this car.A huge danger.

2020-08-29 CAR WAS PURCHASED, DUE TO CURRENT COVID-19 SITUATION THE CAR IS JUST DRIVEN OCCASIONALLY. AFTER THE CAR WAS NOT MOVED FOR OVER 14 DAYS THE CAR WENT INTO DEEP SLEEP MODE. ACCORDING TO THE WARNING (SEE ATTACHED PIC) IT REQUIRES TO MANUALLY TURN ON THE CAR TO DEACTIVATE THIS MODE. THIS IS NOT THE CASE OF THE CORSAIR BECAUSE ON DAILY BASIS THE CAR CONTINUES GOING INTO THE DEEP SLEEP MODE DRAINING THE BATTERY. IN TWO OCCASIONS BETWEEN THE WEEK OF SEP 14TH AND SEP 21ST I WAS REQUIRED TO JUMP START THE BATTERY TO TURN THE CAR ON. 2020-09-21 REMOTE FEATURES DISABLED FOR BATTERY OPTIMIZATION. TO CONSERVE BATTERY LIFE FOR THE CORSAIR, REMOTE FEATURES ARE TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE. THIS HAPPENS BEEN DRIVEN IN A WHILE. 2020-09-22 YOUR SCHEDULED START FAILED. THE CORSAIR START FAILED BECAUSE YOUR VEHICLE INACTIVITY HAS PUT IT IN DEEP SLEEP MODE IN ORDER TO CONSERVE BATTERY POWER. 2020-09-23 YOUR SCHEDULED START FAILED.

THEY ESTIMATE THREE WEEKS TO GET THE PARTS.
