"This is my second MKX, the 2008 was great, but this one has a lot to be desired. The ride is very rough, wipers run for no reason, has a pull on the road to the right, has to be steered instead of just driven. It has done it since driving it from the showroom. They tell me it is the wind or crown of the road. I have driven Lincoln Towncars and now the MKX but will probably my last. Not a pleasure to drive!!!!"

"This vehicle, in addition to being quite luxurious and smart looking, is exceptionally well-appointed. It has more "bells and whistles" than I could possibly master in six months! It rides well, has minimal road noise and is a joy to drive."

"I have had this car for 3 months. After reviewing all of the luxury cross-overs, I ended leasing this car and up to now, its the best decision yet. The interior is very classy and the new winged hood makes the car very unique. Performance has been superb so far and the ride is very smooth. And of course, I can't forget to mention the MyLincolnTouch with all its incredible functions (go through the dvd first). I just love driving the MKX. The only small letdown is the MPG, which is below sticker around 15.5 (Sticker is 17 MPG for AWD)"

"i love this car. The interior design is as ergonomic as it's get. The electronics are superb, but they take time to get use to. The instructions to use Sync are simple. I suggest you read the instructions before using it. The designers use their talent to bring style and comfort together."

"The car looks good, has a lot of technology in it. The problem is Ford can't fix the Sync system. They don't have the proper software. The vehicle was loaded, had problems with the Sync/tech features from the day I bought it. I had it in for service 9 times, the dealer told me they have a lot of problems with this system and there is no fix yet. Lincoln customer service was a joke. I took the hit and traded it in after 8 months for a Jeep Cherokee Overland. I have had it for a month and it works and drives great. Test dive one befor you commit to the MKX."

"Great driving car. Very comfortable. Sync system works well and never fails to link with my phone. MKX has all the toys for 20% less than my last Mercedes SUV."

"My wife loves her car. We bought it new black on black with the wood trim. It is hard to get out of and the Mysync is beyond worthless. You not only need a co-pilot to run the thing, but it's a nightmare to use, slow and clumsy. The car is very comfortable and a joy to drive. The looks are killer and the vista room is very nice. The gas mileage could be better."

"This vehicle is equipped with all of the newest gadgets the manufactors are making at the present time. Very good handling car with excellent response to acceleration and stopping. It is a head turner due to new design and very appealling and have gotten many good comments. One of the best driving vehicles that I have ever driven and fun to drive on a curvy winding road. Has no roll. The only slight drawback is that it could have a slightly larger rear storage area but it is adequate in most cases. Outstanding mileage!"

"I got my 2011 MKX AWD Limited edition six weeks ago, the in dash computer kept freezing up, called Lincoln was told that they are aware of the issue but no update available as of yet, finally after six weeks the came out an update, it took the dealer two days to update, picked up vehicle late in the day, in the morning the vehicle was DOA. I came out of a MKX 2008 which never had a problem, loved it. My question is, how can Ford ship a vehicle with a known issue???. The 2011 interior is a lot noisier in then the 2008."
