Great so far

I've only owned this car for a few weeks, but it has been extremely reliable. Very comfortable car and very fun to drive, especially with the v6

Never had a problem in 177,000 miles.

Car has had oil change every 3000 miles. Well taken care of. Really only one owner before me and I only put less than 5000 miles. Right front hit a deer with about 1500 damage Other wise car is perfect.

Fairly reliable car with a lot of nice features.

The ride quality is harsher than what you'd normally expect from a Lincoln but as a result the car feels very planted and competent with spirited driving. Power delivery is nice through the auto transmission although it is a shame that it doesn't have any kind of gear selecting. You get PRNDL and that's it, no + or -. The car drives quietly but the engine growls nicely under load and it always feels like the car is ready to get moving. The AWD also works wonders in all kinds of weather even with only all season tires. The navigation still works fairly well on road trips and will get you to most places reliably and the THXII 14 speaker stereo is one of the best I've heard in a car and there is an aux jack in the center console. Cooled seats are great on hot days and heated seats are great in the winter. Trunk space is pretty good with the deck height being reasonable so loading and unloading is easy. All this said I've had some expensive problems with it: The transmission cooler lines burst within a few months of buying it at about 120k miles. The fuel injector on cylinder 2 would get stuck shut when the car was restarted after having warmed up (it would drive perfectly fine as long as the engine was allowed to cool all the way down) causing a heavy misfire and limp mode. Finally the bearings on the rear driveshaft for the AWD failed at about 140k miles after a year of making a whirring noise. The driveshaft was a $1100.00 job and the part is only made by Ford, there is no aftermarket for it. The car drives less lively without the AWD so I chose to repair it anyways and supposedly the driveshaft was updated because a small percentage of MKZ's had the same problem.

Very reliable automobile

Not as comfortable as our previous Continental, but close. Good economy with quick response and power. Sedate, long lasting styling. Controls within easy reach without visual searching.

Great Car fun to drive

This is a great MN car. The AWD gets me through the snow with ease and my kids have plenty of leg room. It's the perfect size for my family and has a good amount of trunk space.

Glorified Ford Fusion. Very disappointed.

Performance from the V6 is exceptional. The issues are the dash bubbled up around the defrost vent, all the cheep plastic dash trim, door trim and handles are either broken, chipped or not operational. Navigation was sup-par at best. Power seat broke after a few years of use. Paint started to fade after only about 3 years which is extremely unusual as the vehicle was always garaged and detailed on a regular basis. For a so called luxury vehicle it misses the mark. Very disappointed in Lincoln.

Extremely Reliable Commuter Car

This MKZ Sedan has been a very reliable and comfortable commuter car. It is excellent in the snow and all weather.
