  • 2016 LINCOLN MKZ
    - Cambridge, IA

    When I was at the dealership today, I was informed the lug nuts on my car have swollen and that if they are not replaced I probably will not be able to change a spare tire alongside the road if needed. I was informed that there is a manufacturing defect that Ford is aware of, but has not recalled yet.

  • 2016 LINCOLN MKZ
    - louisville, KY

    UNKNOWN - When I'm driving at a lower speed, I will feel a bounce back in the brake or gas pedal and will receive 4 different alerts on my dashboard (hill start unavailable, service auto trac and a couple others). Once this happens, I loose power steering and it becomes difficult to turn my wheel. At times, this will happen when I am reversing and caused my car to go into neutral on it's own. When I tried to go into reverse or drive, it wouldn't switch. The emergency brakes wouldn't come off when the tow truck man tried to tow it. The dealership stated it was a fuse and fixed that after paying the amount due, but it still continues to happen

  • 2008 LINCOLN MKX
    - Scottsdale, AZ

    MKX has 75000 miles on it and the tss and oss sensors have gone out. Car goes into limp mode and will barely move, it shifts very hard, speed odometer quits and all the warning lights come on. If you stop let it sit and restart car it resets issue but you never know when it will happen again. It can happen at cruising speed or at start of car. VERY unsafe
