Brand New 2016 Lincoln MKC

2016 Lincoln MKC Reserve 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
6 of 7 people found this review helpful

Coming from an Audi A4 and I feel like I sacrificed nothing in terms of luxury. Actually more comfort features on this than the Audi and more intuitive controls. Very comfortable interior, nice fit and finish, quiet. Cannot rate the performance aspects because I don't drive spiritedly, but for long trips and around town, I'm very satisfied. Lease cost was $150 less per mo than getting into another A4.

I bought the 2016 MKC new - during factory warranty, the turbo failed but was replaced by Ford as a warranty item. Last week, check engine light came on - dealer diagnosed cylinder # 4 has anti- freeze leak - engine needs replaced for $8,500 - no more Ford products for me!

I purchased this after driving a Cadillac SRX for 5 years and this vehicle is much more fun to drive. It has more pep than the SRX and is much quicker to say the least. It is more comfortable inside although it is a little smaller. It was a great purchase. I have always driven Cadillacs, but I am sold on Lincolns into the future.

I Love my car

I love my 2016 MKC Reserve that I bought used last March. It is just the right size to fit in my garage and to drive. It has all the amenities I want. I love the rear hands-free lift gate, the leather interior, auto off & on high beams, the heated steering wheel and sitting up higher in the SUV as opposed to sitting lower in a sedan, the rear camera and the welcome/security lights when approaching my vehicle. I feel good knowing I have the all wheel drive incase of a heavy snow. The only option I don't use is the cooled seats. I use the heated seats but not the cooled seats. The gas mileage is OK. In the summer I was getting 25 MPG but in the winter I am getting 23.7. Must be all the additives they add in the winter that lowers my MPG. Again I am very happy with my 2016 MKC. There are other options included in this vehicle which I appreciate and too numerous to mention. I just mentioned the ones I LOVE!!!!

Better than a bmw or benz.

2016 lincoln mkc reserve 2.3 awd. The car is great. My sticker price was $47,446. I got some rebates and 1.9 financing. I could have bought a bmw, benz or audio for this price with less options. Bmw has no touch screens. Just a stupid knob. The car gets 5mpg better than what it says, after break in. I own a business and have a fleet of 16 vehicles and I have driven all of them. The fords hold up much better than other brands. I drive this car myself. 3 weeks old and 6,234 miles already. I even have used it a few times to drive passengers around for uber!! Great ride, no road noise. Seat is so compy it's crazy good. Buy the car! No complaints at all! And I'm very picky.

Love my MKC

I bought this as a Lincoln Certified used car. It still had 7 months remaining in the factory warranty before the certified warranty kicks in. The car is fun to drive as it handles more like a car than an SUV. I love the design, both inside and out. I've taken several long trips and it's very comfortable and not tiring at all after being on the road for many hours. Plus, my highway fuel mileage (30 - 32) has been better than the EPA estimates. City fuel mileage has been spot on with EPA as I've been getting 19 -21. Overall, I love the features and the comfort. Very quiet car too.

This SUV packs a punch for the buck

I leased a 2016 Select AWD 2.0, and put on 36,000 miles without a single issue or need for repair. Just changed oil and rotated tires per service, about $70 each time and under 1 hour. My only gripes are- the front seats dont adjust as much I prefer, I am 5'10 and 190lbs, so average. The telescoping wheel also could use another inch down, and outward. The gas mileage average was 24MPG, and I drive pretty spirited and in Sport Mode often. Thats it. I liked it so much, that I just leased a 2019, as Lincoln will make your last 3 payments if you trade to new lease. So I leased a Select Plus (Cross Blind Spot/Navigation) for a bit more than the 2016, but residuals on the lease have changed a lot, and there are not as many incentives on leases for this modem like 2016. I looked at a Audi Q5, Benz GLC, BMW X3. The best of that bunch IMO was the Audi Q5, but with options/leases, they are 40% more to lease. I also dont like the cost of repairs should I have a issue not under warranty, German cars are $$$ to fix. Had a BMW and a Benz in last 10 years.

The Health Of Sir Collinn

I have only driven the vehicle 7994 Miles in mostly clear weather. I can not honestly make a sound evaluation of the vehicle in that it is too soon to do so. What I can say is that the passenger cabin is well appointed but tight. The power conversion pod in the back seat area keeps popping out and had to be replaced. I noticed an oil leak from underneath the engine compartment at about six thousand miles. I discovered, after taking the vehicle to the dealership, that the leak was caused by a loose oil filter. At nearly 13K miles, Sir Collinn has preformed well. No repairs done other than the power outlet in the rear seat area and a punctured right front tire. The acceleration is great for a four cylinder. The noise level over bumps can be annoying. The THX stereo is equal to or greater than the Bose system I had in my previous vehicle.

MKC (Awesome If You Want A Classy Small SUV

A little small for backseat leg room and if you need to put golf clubs behind second row in cargo area. Otherwise, even the lowest end model of 3 choices: Premiere, Select and Reserve is awesome. I’m trading in my Lincoln MKC in 4 months for a 2018 Lincoln MKX or 2019 Nautilus which is taking the place of the MKX (for branding I think). The light up Lincoln puddle light as you approach the car is slick too as is the display panel and sound system with Bluetooth and 3-4 USB ports. Mine’s grey with black interior. Will likely get a black one with black interior tan. Great dealership in Atlanta too.
