You are lucky you are driving a Lincoln. They historically have longer Warranty periods for free repairs.

This can be one of a number of things. The mounts for the undercarraige to the body may be loose. The motor mounts can be bad, the Trans can be worn. The Torque Converter lock-up can be worn. Brake calipers could be sticking.

Sometimes the Torque converter engagements are electronically controlled and adjustable through a computer hookup.

Some parts are Warrantied longer if they are covered by pollution regulations, but the Lincoln product had longer Warranties than the cheaper products so investigate with a Lincoln Dealer. There may be Service bulletins for a common defect that is a free fix.

I hope my solution was helpful, please rate my info.

Hi. My left rear brake is making a very loud nosie when i stop. The same noise continues once i press the gas but only for a short second.

sounds like either your caliper is sticking or your wear indicator on your brake pads is making the sound.

Rear End Nosie

if it is a growling type noise that increases with speed it is a wheel bearing. can you tell which side it is coming from? if not sometimes when driving you can turn car and shift the vehicle weight the side making noise will quiet down some when the weight is shifted off it so if you turn to right and noise gets less it is rt side and so on

Brakes makin nosie

Sounds like a wheel hub assembly is bad without seeing it. Alot of GM vehicles have the ABS wheel speed sensors built into the hub assemblies. Should be able to narrow the noise down by driving the car slightly turn left and right noise should change from loud to soft when turning the wheel. ( if you turn left and noise gets louder hub on right front is noisey.Opposite will occur if left side is bad)

Car drives and shifts, but theres a clunking noise

check the brake dust shield beind the rotor. That might be a good start. Not sure what you mean by clunking but also check your engine mounts bushing and sway bar bushing. Good luck
