"Catastrophic engine failure" for a 2 week old car

It took possession of a brand new Lincoln aviator and in less then 2 weeks, the vehicle died on the side of the road. I had to tow it into the nearest dealer (roadside assistance told me it would be 90 min! I found a tow truck in 10). Told it has a catastrophic engine failure and needs a new engine. Not happening. Now I have to fight Lincoln to provide me a new car, I'm not taking a lemon junk for $100k

Stay away - tire pressure module problem

Loved and leased a 2021 Flight Blue Reserve in mid December. Within the 1st week tire pressure monitor module which resides above the headliner is faulty. Vehicle now in the garage for more than in our driveway over the last 2 months. Asked Lincoln to get out of the lease as there is no eta on the replacement however denied. Option to have vehicle put back together or stay in the Navigator (25k miles and smells like a cigar) that they rented from Enterprise - this after being in 1 Corsair and 2 Nautilus’ during this last month. Starting the formal Lemon Law process next. Apparently ours was the 1st of now 4 units in the USA with the issue. Would not recommend Lincoln at all at this time.

Really enjoying the car

I have been eyeing the Aviator for over a year...and I was concerned about buying a first year car...so I waited for the second model year. So far the car has been great. I feel it is a great American made vehicle! Support American jobs, American companies and the American economy!

Lemon?

2021 Aviator, 32,000 miles. Sync is awful. Have to strategically plug the phone in every time I start the car is it won't connect. The dealer can't fix it. Both front windows rattle, been back 3 times and they can't fix it. In for service the last 8 days. When I start the car, sounds like the exhaust is loose and there is a rattle. Found out today it's the VCT selenoids ( I don't even know what they are) Motor has to come out to replace them. Noticed a drone sound at highway speeds. Found out today the rear end is bad and that has to be replaced. Not fixable, has to be replaced, part is on back order. No timetable to get the car fixed. When it's fixed, I don't want it. Trading it in.
