2022 Lincoln Nautilus Problems: 5 Issues Every Owner Should Know

2022 model year · NHTSA recalls, manufacturer TSBs, and owner forum reports · Updated June 2026

According to Au7o's research across NHTSA recalls, manufacturer TSBs, and owner forum reports, the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus has 5 documented known issues. No issues are rated critical, indicating generally reliable ownership. Across all issues, repair costs range from $150 to $3,500. DIY maintenance guides at au7o.io.

All 5 Known Issues

On the 2019-2023 Lincoln Nautilus, first-generation Nautilus owners widely report the SYNC 3 center touchscreen freezing, going completely black, or spontaneously rebooting while driving — sometimes leaving only the backup camera working. Symptoms point to memory corruption in the APIM (Accessory Protocol Interface Module / SYNC module) software rather than the display panel itself, so a black or frozen screen usually traces to the APIM. Distinct from the 2024+ panoramic/center-display reboot recall (25V337), which is the newer multimedia module on the redesigned model.

This issue also affects: Ford Bronco

Common Symptoms

Center screen freezes / unresponsive to touch
Screen goes completely black except backup camera
Infotainment reboots itself while driving
Apple CarPlay/Android Auto drops or won't connect
Audio and navigation glitches

How to Fix

Try a SYNC master reset (hold the power/volume button and Seek-Right for 10 seconds) and install the latest SYNC 3 software via USB or OTA. If freezes recur, the APIM module is reprogrammed or replaced by the dealer; updating to the current software level resolves most memory-related lockups. A pending USB drive update can also stop the reboot loop.

On the 2019-2022 Lincoln Nautilus, nautilus owners frequently report the Auto Start-Stop system behaving erratically — failing to engage, failing to auto-restart smoothly at the light, or throwing a system-fault/malfunction message. The most common root cause is the 12V battery state-of-charge falling below the threshold the system needs (the AGM start-stop battery degrades faster than a conventional battery), so the system disables itself or restarts roughly. The popularity of plug-and-play 'start-stop eliminator' modules for the Nautilus reflects how much the behavior annoys owners.

This issue also affects: Ford Bronco, Ford Fusion, Ford Maverick

Common Symptoms

Auto Start-Stop won't shut the engine off at stops
Rough or delayed engine auto-restart
Start-Stop 'not available' or fault message
Feature works intermittently / disables itself
Frequent dead or weak battery

How to Fix

Test the 12V battery and charging system; replace a weak or aged AGM battery with the correct spec and perform a Battery Monitoring System (BMS) reset so the PCM relearns state-of-charge. Ensure parasitic-draw and software are current. Owners who simply dislike the feature use the dash defeat button each drive or a plug-and-play disable module (not a repair, a preference).

On the 2019-2023 Lincoln Nautilus, the hands-free power liftgate frequently becomes intermittent or fully inoperative on first-generation (2019-2023) Nautilus. The system uses a single electric motor on the driver's side plus a gas strut on the passenger side; failures include the motor straining without the latch releasing, the gate not responding to the fob/dash button/kick sensor, and the gate opening or closing on its own while parked. Ford documents that many 2019-2020 cases are Rear Gate Trunk Module (RGTM) software, while others are a weak motor or a worn gas support strut (one owner quoted ~$1,200 for struts).

This issue also affects: Ford Bronco

Common Symptoms

Liftgate won't open or close with fob, dash button, or kick gesture
Motor runs/strains but latch doesn't release
Liftgate opens or closes by itself while parked
Gate stops partway or won't hold position
Intermittent operation that comes and goes

How to Fix

Start with an RGTM software reprogram and a power-liftgate re-initialization procedure, which resolves many no-open/erratic cases without parts. If the gate is mechanically weak or won't hold position, replace the failing gas support strut and/or the liftgate drive motor. Verify the kick-sensor and latch operation after repair.

On the 2019-2023 Lincoln Nautilus 2.7L EcoBoost V6, nautilus models with the optional 2.7L EcoBoost V6 produce a ticking, tapping, or rattle noise from the top-front-cover area of the engine on initial start-up after a cold soak of 6 hours or more, lasting roughly 2-5 seconds. Ford TSB 23-2356 (superseding 22-2376 and 23-2049) attributes the noise to stuck internal components in the variable cam timing (VCT) / cam phaser units. Left unaddressed it can set crank/cam correlation codes (P0016). It is a well-documented EcoBoost cam-phaser pattern failure also seen on the F-150 2.7L.

This issue also affects: Ford Bronco, Ford Edge, Ford Expedition

Common Symptoms

Ticking/tapping/rattle from front of engine for 2-5 seconds on cold start
Noise only after the car sits 6+ hours
Noise diminishes once oil pressure builds
Possible check engine light with cam/crank correlation codes at higher mileage

How to Fix

Per TSB 23-2356 the prescribed repair is to replace all four VCT (cam phaser) units — a substantial ~14.7-hour labor job. Using the correct oil viscosity and avoiding extended oil-change intervals helps slow phaser wear. Many out-of-warranty owners report Ford goodwill covering a large portion (one owner quoted ~$2,600 with ~2/3 covered at 88k miles).

On the 2022-2024 Lincoln Nautilus, owners of the redesigned 2024 Nautilus (and some 2022-2023 cars) report a loud groan, grunt, or grinding noise from the front brakes as the vehicle comes to a complete stop, more pronounced in cooler temperatures and often fading once the brakes warm. Ford service message SSM 52556 ('Front Brake Grunt Noise') ties it to the front rotor material/finish. Lincoln revised the rotors on the production line starting June 16, 2024, with service replacement parts following in Q3; many early-2024 owners reported rotors on nationwide backorder.

Common Symptoms

Groan / grunt noise from front brakes just before the car stops
Noise worse when brakes are cold or in cool weather
Noise dissipates after brakes warm up
Rear brake squeak/squeal in some cars

How to Fix

Dealer remedy is to install the revised front rotors (and, for squeal complaints, an updated rear brake-pad shim kit). It is a noise/quality concern, not a stopping-performance failure; replacement is covered under the new-vehicle warranty. Owners experiencing backorder should ask the dealer to document the concern so it stays covered.
