2017 Lincoln MKC

I'm writing this review in regards to a $15,000 Lincoln 2017 motor and transmission problem which occurred at 65,000 miles but was not resolved until 85,000 miles after the car was outside of its warranty. At 65,000 miles my engine had 2 spark plug failures at the same time. It then occurred again at 75,000 miles, 80,000 miles and 85,000 miles. At 85,000 miles I was told I needed a new engine and transmission for $15,000 because the gaskets failed allowing coolant to seep into the engine block. In an online search, it was found that it was a frequent occurrence that the 4 cylinder eco engine form years had this problem. And that numerous other people have had similar problems in other vehicles such as Escape, Escort, and Mustang. The problems that I experienced during this ordeal was that I was not provided a rental car during this 3.5 week repair at a Ford dealership. I was told that my car was outside warranty even though I provided them with all the previous receipts from the dealer ship showing engine failure starting at 65,000 miles. And I was told I should of purchased their extended warranty next time. Well, chances are there won't be a next time and I'll revert my next years car purchase to Lexus or Acura. Having an entire power train fail at 65,000 miles is just not what I would expect from any car manufacturer, especially from one in which I drove it nice, and changed the fluids more often than needed (oil 7,000 fully synthetic, 15,000 miles for Transmision fluid).

Car was a lemon from the start. The noise damper on the bottom of the car ( made out of carboard) fell off few times after hitting debris on the freeway. The engine light came on right after the warranty was over. In an out of the mechanic for engine light check. Spark plugs, gear, computer. Last time we had the engine light on they told us we needed to replace the engine at 58000 miles. We had the car for 8 years, drove an average of 7,000 miles a year. We sold the car. Car was an issue and a money pit. Don't buy it.

I at first loved my Lincoln a couple weeks after I owned it the engine blew and ford had my car for so long the tires flat spotted and they thought it was fine for me To drive around like that Lincoln replaced the engine and it doesn’t run the same as when I test drove it I had to take it to Lincoln in Columbia to fix all the little things that followed after the engine replacement if I didn’t have all these problems I would’ve been in love with this car I love the look and I think it’s comfortable my mom says it rides better than her Cadillac so there you go
