Watch out around 65000 milee

I'm writing this review in regards to a $15,000 Lincoln 2017 motor and transmission problem which occurred at 65,000 miles but was not resolved until 85,000 miles after the car was outside of its warranty. At 65,000 miles my engine had 2 spark plug failures at the same time. It then occurred again at 75,000 miles, 80,000 miles and 85,000 miles. At 85,000 miles I was told I needed a new engine and transmission for $15,000 because the gaskets failed allowing coolant to seep into the engine block. In an online search, it was found that it was a frequent occurrence that the 4 cylinder eco engine form years had this problem. And that numerous other people have had similar problems in other vehicles such as Escape, Escort, and Mustang. The problems that I experienced during this ordeal was that I was not provided a rental car during this 3.5 week repair at a Ford dealership. I was told that my car was outside warranty even though I provided them with all the previous receipts from the dealer ship showing engine failure starting at 65,000 miles. And I was told I should of purchased their extended warranty next time. Well, chances are there won't be a next time and I'll revert my next years car purchase to Lexus or Acura. Having an entire power train fail at 65,000 miles is just not what I would expect from any car manufacturer, especially from one in which I drove it nice, and changed the fluids more often than needed (oil 7,000 fully synthetic, 15,000 miles for Transmision fluid).

Worst car ever

I cannot wait until I get rid of this car. It is very uncomfortable. The back seat has such a small amount of leg room, that adults cannot sit comfortably in the back. My baby's car seat will barely fit! The hatch back will not lift manually after 15 months. The engine noise is much louder than my old mix. The controls are not very user friendly. The design has become old looking very quickly. Very disappointed in this Lincoln model.
