It is a documented one: NHTSA's files hold 41 manufacturer filings and 10 owner reports naming P0302 on 16 Lincoln model years (2016–2026). Whether it is a problem on one particular car is a diagnosis, not a count — but a bulletin that names the code on your model year is the place to start.

Which Lincoln models does P0302 appear on most?

2017 MKZ (9 documents), 2017 MKC (7 documents), 2024 Corsair (5 documents).

Does P0302 on a Lincoln mean it is recalled?

No. Recalls are filed by campaign and matched by VIN; no recall is triggered by a scan tool. Check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or open the model year's page here for the campaigns filed against it.
