Used 2018 Lincoln Continental Sedan Consumer Reviews
Fabulous 6 years later
The Edmunds crowd overlooks one huge factor with these. I would rather have a 6 year old Black Label than an Audi, Lexus, BMW or Mercedes Sedan made in 2024 because it has a spare tire. PERIOD. Our Continental has been flawless and replaced a S550 Benz. Give me the Lincoln. Looking for a really low mileage unit and I will buy another one in a heartbeat!

Great stylish car.
Nice body styling. Smoothest engine I've ever had. Have to check the tach to see if it's running. Great milage for a car this size. Plenty of power and very comfortable.

Initial drive disappoitment!!!!
I drove this from the selling dealer to my home, then directly to the repair shop! My "new" 2018 Continental Reserve was my worst new car experience out of 16 vehicles I have purchased! Very disappointed in its initial quality and multiple malfunctions which so far has the vehicle in the repair shop 3 weeks and counting to make it drivable. Switching from foreign to USA made vehicle seems to be a mistake!! My patriotic move to support USA made vehicles didn't pan out!! Very disappointed they did not replace the vehicle to make it right, rather was told I had to accept the extensively torn apart repaired vehicle!! Who knows what else I might find wrong with this "lemon!!!" Drove a Continental from the selling dealer to the repair shop!! Pretty sad for a "luxury" vehicle!!!. Malfunctions/failures include Audio system malfunction, Speaker failure, Fuel system software, Oil pan leak, damaged drivers panel, Welcome lighting intermittent failure, Collision alert intermittent, Adaptable suspension iffy (drove similar Reserve and found much smoother). I hope the other buyers have better luck, because Lincoln certainly did not live up to their name on this one!!!! My expectations were high going in, which I'm sure is the reason for the huge disappointment. No combined fuel rating can be given due lack of ownership and malfunctioning fuel system.

Very Disappointed
It is pathetic that Ford calls this car their Lincoln Flagship. For the past 10 years I have owned 5 Lexus,1 Equus and 1 Cadillac SUV. Lexus has it over all of them including this Lincoln. The Lincoln interior appears to be made of cheaper material. Road stability does not compare to the 2014 Lexus LS460 that I traded in. I checked the used value with less then 2000 miles on this Lincoln after owning it one week and found that the Purchase price of $45,998 was worth less than $40,000 and my Lexus trade in had an asking price of $37,995 on that Dealers lot. My 2014 trade in was almost worth what the 2017 Lincoln. I did request the salesman along with the used car Manager to cancel this purchase and return my trade in. I was told that if I was not happy with this Lincoln that they could put me into another vehicle. After my Lincoln experience I can say honestly that I will not own another Ford/Lincoln product.

Bump ride slow stoping uncomfortable and noise
You got hold on the steering even doing so the car dances on anything also mention is a uncomfortable steering to hold you can't put your hand flat at any position. Lower back is sore need extra cushion on the seat them bottom sore is the angle of the seat the mkt has the best seats for the driver . Should be a quieter car but it isn't the windows are not sealed well and is loud. Beginning acceleration is good but at 65 the car start crying .foot pedal to seat to steering is so odd haven't be able to find a comfortable position 9 months driving .The front window it seems to not have the green glasses what makes you super blind from the sunlight also the chrome detail reflect on your eyes in any sunny day .did I mention the arm rest don't match with the position of the seat you got to ground the seat to became a arm rest this is a great design same with gas padal to the brake they are almost a foot in height different from one another I will say from 60 to 0 to stop will take about 10 seconds that is how it feels you really got have a heavy foot .good luck test drive it before may be you feet it I'm a 5,9" person .
