RUN DO NOT BUY ONE.

RUN DO NOT BUY ONE. No clue who has had good luck with this year....but it's not been us and the dealership service bulletins are endless on this year. Two transmission and torque converter rebuilds and replacements. Under 90,000 miles driven by an almost 60 year old!! Modem replaced for dash hook up to My way ap and phone connection..still doesn't work. AWD rear end worked on and rebuilt for noise and drive issues. Auto close mirrors worked on 4 times. Brakes replaced at 48,000 miles. Auto lift hatch repaired. Hood latch and release cable stuck open..replaced 1100.00!!!! O2 sensor On and on.. Unless you have piles of money and also can buy a warranty it's horrible. Worse car we have ever bought. Wish we had researched this more.

I simply love my 2029 Nautilus.

I simply love my 2029 Nautilus. I have driven it Cross Country twice. From The Eastern Shore to Arizona and then back to the Eastern Shore. My son drove and has a HEAVY foot. Both rides were exceptional. She ( yes I call my truck a she) didnt miss a beat. Super comfortable ride. Great gas mileage. I intend for this to be my very last car of purchase.

Jerky nautilus 2019

Jerky transmission below 40mph. No fun to drive. Taking to dealer for service today also down shifting is jerky. Like trying to find a gear

Hidden jewel of the SUV world

The best ride ever. Had an X3that got totaled and the Nautilus was our choice. Glad we did. It is the front wheel drive 4 cyl and we couldn’t be happier. Can’t wait for the next road trip!

Driving the 2019 Lincoln is a pleasure. W

We love driving and riding in our 2019 Nautilus and don’t want to get another car for long time! We have had no issues with it at all and we love the concierge service.

Hatch Issue

We have a 2019 and noticed there is no safety sensor on the hatch. It does not stop going down regardless of what is in the way of it. Dangerous. Anyone else notice that problem?

Nice vehicle with a few flaws

Great ride, styling and performance on my 2019 Nautilus Black Label. There are a few negatives. Wind buffeting in the cabin is horrible with only one window rolled down. The push button transmission gear selector leaves much to be desired. The transmission will occasionally “clunk” when going from reverse to drive. The transmission constantly hunts for the proper gear which makes acceleration feel choppy. That’s a major flaw in my opinion. The hands free lift gate has never worked properly from day one. While under warranty I’ve had the dealer address the transmission issues and lift gate. These issues remain unresolved.
