Tires don't last

2018 Lincoln Continental Reserve 4dr Sedan AWD (2.7L 6cyl Turbo 6A)

I have owned a brand new 2017 Lincoln Continental Reserve and 2018 Lincoln Continental Reserve. They are good looking vehicles and fun to drive. However, you will only get 25K miles on the tires. My alignment is perfect but the inside of all tires are gone. I thought it was maybe bad tires to then have the exact same experience with the 2018. Then, after spending $2500 on new tires, I got only 25k more. I was told by service that the engine is too heavy. What, to heavy? If I knew this, I would have not bought the second one. I also keep having a low engine oil pressure warning. When I take it in for service, they say they fix it but I happens every 3 months. It is clearly electronic because all you do is turn the car off and back on and it is fine again. They can't figure it out and I have given up on it. It sucks to pull over on the interstate to turn it off. When the warning comes on, you totally lose power if you hit the gas. So, hard to understand how just turning the car off fixes it but I am done with the dealership telling me that I need to change my oil. It has happened 4 days after oil was changed. It has now happened about 10 times and took it in 3 times. The 2017 has the rear seat package. It is a nice package. Looks real sharp. You would think it would come with a DVD player for the money. Also, the 2017 battery fried at 28K miles because the alternator was hooked up backwards, they tell me. The 2018 battery fried at 45K miles. Luckily it was still under warranty. I have owned tons of vehicles. For the money, the Continental seems to have to many problems. My favorite car has been Jaguar XJL. I have had plenty of SUVs as well. The navigator has been the best with the 3rd row having a ton of leg room.

Not my Town Car

Leased my Reserve AWD in March 18 after driving Town Cars for 20 years. While the Town Car is a dinosaur by comparison, its overall ride and storage capacity was far superior. That being said here are my thoughts so far at 7000 miles: PROS; 30 position massage seats though somewhat complicated to operate. MPG overall 23-24 and 27 Hwy on a few trips. 2.7 liter turbocharged engine offers good power. Above average rear seat room. Nice styling. Lots of bells and whistles though don't know if I'll ever use them all. CONS: Push button transmission can be slow to respond. It and everything is computer/electrically controlled including opening the doors. I'm old school and don't care for this trend. Dash display option unnecessarily complicated. No option for a temperature gauge. Owners manual 3/4" thick and poorly organized. Below average trunk capacity but the rear seats fold down which helps. No power to auxiliary ports when engine is off. Soooo... bottom line is I wish Lincoln still built a Town Car but with some of the tech updates and doodads that the Continental provides. The jury is out on whether I'll get another one when the lease is up

The extra cost is worth every dollar. We tend to keep a car a long time, and the quality of this Lincoln Continental tells me it will last like our Towncar did.

I have people stopping me to tell me how good looking this car is. I love driving it. It’s so plush but has enough get up and go when I hit the gas to satisfy this former Dodge Charger owner. The only criticism I have is I single rough shift between first and second that happens occasionally when coasting but otherwise it works like a dream.
