Ford/Lincoln Strike 3 You're Out!

Glitchy and really uncomfortable for a long trip. Since the day we bought this vehicle it makes noises all the time. Sometimes (every hour or 2) while I'm in the garage you hear these weird noises (clicking and hissing). then when I'm driving the center screen and wheel control electronics will not work and many check lights turn on. we were on a road trip and about 2 out of the 5 days the co pilot 360, speed distance control, regular cruise control, gps nav etc did not work. it was like driving a 70's car all over. When we took it to the dealership the standard response was "we could not duplicate the problem but we made a software update that should take are of the issue". (even after showing several videos we took to show). still to this date we regularly have no GPS, or a very slow responding vehicle. sometimes the car still takes 10-15 min to start the electronics for you to punch in your directions. in town by that time Siri already got me to the destination. the continues noises of the vehicle parked still continues . as to a long trip we got the massaging seats. these seats Suck!! 6'1" and 240 lbs my wife is 5'7 160lbs and after 1.5 hours we have have to stop and walk from the pain. You can feel all of the mechanisms under the 1" padding and I try to sin in different angles which is hard to find any spot to move into since the seats are like sport car seats (it ok for about 30-60 min). Dealer ship support is the worst of any deanship that I have had. parison are VW, Audi, BMW, MB, Ram, Jeep, Nissan. To get so low in customer service is just ridiculous. This is my 3rd time over 20 years buying a FORD product. The firs 2 were pickups 1 in 1996 and another in 2003, and then I said never a FORD again! Both vehicles I got rid of in 11 months and 18 months consecutively! the first I send over 8 months in the shop in the 11 months of ownership. This time I though its been almost 20 years lets give it another shot especially since I really like the looks and all the features, large engine, good towing capacity etc. What a mistake it has been. Don't be fooled but this vehicle sucks!. Look elsewhere! This vehicle stickers out to about 67K. Reserve model. with copilot 360, pano roof, package 2 with automated cruise control, Rear bench seat (seats real real real uncomfortable and no space, middle seat is good for a 4 year old (my kids are 9 and 12and don't fit)). This SUV was a rush job and it shows when you buy it!

Escalade beater

I shopped a number of luxury SUVs including Mercedes ,Volvo, Audi and Cadillac. Lincoln has really put much careful thought into this new model from a to z .I traded an Escalade and prefer this Aviator in most all departments. I own 2 Mercedes and while I am very impressed with them, I wanted something new and if possible American. The Aviator is it .

A LET DOWN EVERY TIME I START MY 2020 AVIATOR.

I have been a Lincoln enthusiast for 40 years. A Lincoln club member and the proud owner of a 64 Lincoln Convertible. After paying top dollar for a fully loaded Aviator I am no longer a fan. The following problems the dealer was able to fix, and I appreciated it. - Paint scratch. - Rattle at the front passenger side. - Rattle at the back of the passenger side. - The rear red light lens not flush to the body but pointing out. - The sun roof not working at all. The dealer could not fix: - A very annoying ticking sound when you start the engine, that does not go away for about 45 min. Of driving. Took the car to the dealer several times. Somehow they just can’t hear it. The second time I turned it in they said they hear it and fixed it. It’s been a year, and the car ticks like a diesel engine. I CANT BELIVE NO ONE HAS WRITTEN ABOUT THIS VERY ANNOYING TICKING. Is my car the only one in the nation with this problem ???
