2017 Lincoln MKC consumer reviews

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

I've owned my Lincoln for almost 3 years. My Lincoln has never failed me. My Lincoln moved us from Colorado to S.Carolina pulling a 5x8 cargo trailer. My Lincoln was a champ we were dodging hurricane weather so we hit flooded areas. I would definitely tell you the Lincoln MKC is a great all around SUV.

Known issue with coolant leaking into cylinder 2 causing car to misfire. Should have been a national recall in my opinion, but it was not. If car isn't still cover by power tran warranty, potentially have car with bad engine that needs to replace

I have owned my 2017 MKC since July of 2016. I have had no issues with it at all and I loved the style from the beginning. My next car will be a Lincoln Corsair probably in 2025. My MKC only has 29,000 miles on it!!

I have owned my Mkc for over 4yrs and the car has been great! It's quiet, comfortable when I make my 3hr trips back and forth from Chicago. Even with the 2.0 engine, she has power to take off and pass anyone I need to. For anyone that complains about oversteer or understeer, check your alignment since I have never experienced that problem driving aggressively. Comfort! Don't understand a complaint there. My brother has a Cadillac Xts and is the most uncomfortable car to sit in. My Mkc rides smooth in comfort mode, is quiet and she is babies and have only had a waterpump go out on me and that is it. All dash controls are easy to navigate and operate but I have always owned Lincolns my entire life and I am 62 and there is a reason for it! Comfortable and problem free. I just don't understand negative comments.

I bought this new. Only problem has been I insignificant—charging port in console is faulty. It’s one of the nicest vehicles I’ve owned, and I have several Porsches. Everything seems to work well, it’s fast-with the 2.0 liter turbo engine. I don’t like the torque steer though but you can get used to it. I put the pedal down hard a lot so it was strange at first. If you’re very fat you might find it tight. I’ve got 50,000 miles on it and it functions as new. And it hasn’t cost the thousands you need to support a German car. In fact, virtually nothing except repairing whatever body damage my wife does to it. I even put a hitch on it and use it when a trucks not available - it can handle big loads of mulch, etc easily. This is a surprisingly good vehicle.

Just rented one of these and have to say it's a piece of junk. The infotainment system is a joke. Voice recognition utterly worthless. Navigation system confused. Design of where the controls are places and how they are operated must have been developed by engineers on methamphetamine. It's clear why the model lasted only a couple years

very small interior for 3 adults no leg room in back seat. not a very smooth ride and has a lot of road noise at times.
