Used 2018 Lincoln Continental Consumer Reviews
Caddy to Lincoln
Well been driving Caddys with Northstar for for past 30 years, and hands down this is a better car, however, I have issues with some for Fords decisions, like for example, the radio on is not remembered based on driver (FOB), the display also is not remembered - 65K for a car that cannot retain the radio and display setting for the fob used like really? That said after driving a CT6 and This Conti, 1. Value for money ++++, 2. Confort +++, 3. I Hate Fords and gave a try when brought back a REAL car name AND they won me over with this car - THO ticks me off on a couple points, like the radio / display as mentioned above, the global windows don't open the moon roof as advertised on Lincolns site and still awaiting Ford/Lincoln exec to contact me (been 2 months), 4. Seeing mixed reviews, the target market should love this care DRIVE it with the 3.0, your mid - life crisis and need for lux AMERICAN CAR are wrapped in one. I will agree with the mixed review on the 6 speed trans - very poor when traveling 70 on highways / shifts erratically when need to pass, and the MPG not any where near what my v8 Northstar got, so those are also negitives, but someone in this market not gonna care about the MPG - (nor am I - that's moot). Over all i would rate 4+ stars, and I only considered FORD because they didn't take bailout money, my original choice to replace the Caddy (as the CT6 was frankly not something i buy with the pricetag or the comfort) was a german car, but i rather own AMERICAN car, and have never owned a forigen car. Value for money the Conti should be looked at. NOTE TO EDMONDS you don't allow or show the 3.0 so selected the 2.7 - please fix. March 2019 Update - still love this car, and i can frankly say after a year and now after 10K in miles its the best car i've ever owned, I still have yet to here fro Lincoln / for on the global window open problem, what a joke thier 30K fusion, and other liclons with factoey mon roof the global open it, but not on the conti, what a joke - and a joke not getting Ford / Lincoln to sofrrect such a simple software problem. FORD PLEASE RESPOND BEEN A YEAR STILL WAITING! Sept 2019 (20190922) - Still yet to here from FORD or Lincoln on the GLOBAL WINDOW OPEN on the Conti, and roof not opening - FOR SUCH A SIMPLE CODE UPDATE. Secondly, all fords that have the keyless entry after code you use 5 to open trunk also dont work on the CONTI, but on all other Fords and Lincolns works. Over all i STILL LOVE THE CAR, and would recommend it (the 3l TT 400HP model, BUT FORD CORP apparently can care less on make customer happy and fixing these minor software issues on this specific car - makes no sence 70K for a car and the 20k cheaper car Global Window Open works properry for the sunroof) and the 5 after code to open trunk also does. FORD RESPOND! I choose you because your took NO bailout money like your US compitors did, and expected betters support on these to topics. 09/2020 - Still a fantastic car and still love it. Lincolns service is absoloutely fantastic, GM dont even come close. Only one compliant is the map updates this is second time had to pay for it to get updated. 09/2021 - STILL GREAT CAR AND GREAT SERVICE, ITS ASHAME FORD/LINCOLN HAS MOVED TO SOLELY SUVs, NOT SURE THAT WAS WISE DECISION.

2017 Continental Black Label
Absolutely amazing!!! This is the Rolls Royce of Lincolns....as one of my friends said. Black Label comes with everything and everything looks and works beautifully. It has the mustang engine and damn.....I love it! Updated 7-12-21: I have had one small problem. The headlamp on drivers side was holding water after several rain storms. The dealer replaced it under warranty. The car has about 44,000 miles on it now and it still looks new and runs beautifully. Extremely quiet even at 80 plus MPH and there is no end to the comfort and luxury in a Black Label Lincoln.

Parts finally arrived
Love the car but warranty issues over the years with only 10,000 miles were a downer; latest parts just arrived - seemed like forever (1 yr.)

I miss my Cadillac DTSs- had 2 before this mess.
No large American sedan choices so I ordered a Continental in March of 2018. My husband picked all the bells and whistles he fell in love with from the tv commercials. We waited until the end of July for the delivery. Within the first few weeks, the ac went out. Dealer probably goosed the Freon but it lasted until the weather changed. Fourth month the trunk refused to respond, not to the fob, not to the dash button, not to the emergency pull in the trunk. After TWO WEEKS in the shop and supposedly a latch change and a complete reprogramming of the car, dealer admitted that the car was "too new and no one knows much about it"... but they did get the trunk to work. Month six, no more exterior sensor warning system or parking assist. Decided to drive it from Virginia to Florida anyway and guess what we found in Florida, NO AC - again. Dealer's response, we verified the ac is not getting cold but couldn't find a leak. We charged it and added dye. If it acts up again, get it back in and they should be able to find the leak. Dealer's response to no sensors - they worked fine for them, "it's going to have to be one of those things that needs to bring back when it is happening more often." It hadn't worked for almost two weeks the day it was taken in so I have no clue what "more often" might mean. I'm not thinking I'm going to keep this car long if this becomes a pattern.
