Not Worth The Money
Repeated problems with the seats; it's been in the shop for 2 weeks this month with 3 different trips. The dealer fails to see the problems with the car just because the computer isn't showing codes. I guess codes are better than people in determining problems. Yeah right. If my car was on fire and it didn't spit out codes there must not be a problem, right. I wish I could get my money back. I'm wondering if I can get the vehicle returned under the lemon law even if the dealer won't recognize the problems.
2009 Lincoln MKS 4dr AWD
The car glides and handles effortlessly. Lots of interior room both in the front and back. The Sync and Navigation systems are easy to use and work great. I feel it's a good car for the money (despite the review from Edmunds) and would definately buy another one!

MKS great car
I can not understand why the "experts" say that this car is pricey. I challenge anyone to find a luxury car with all the electronics and features that the MKS come with for this cheap. My last two cars were Mercedes and BMW and the MKS hands down is more sporty, more comfortable, nicer looking, and better value by far. The 20 inch wheels is a must. Navigation and Audio sys. is second to none. Seats are the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in. rear camera is nice. Another thing the so called experts bash, is the acceleration. This car has plenty of power, I agree its not a dragster by any means but it has plenty of acceleration. Get more power they will complain about MPG!!!!!!
Cross Country trip
Just got back from Reno, NV to Myrtle Beach S.C. and the odometer has 7,200 miles. You can do 90 mph in this car very comfortably. (in Wyoming) I averaged 26.6 mpg for the trip doing 80-85 most of the time. I got 28 mpg doing 70 for a good stretch so milage does improve with more on the odometer. Very comfortable car to ride in cross country! Engine and transmission performed flawlessly in the Rocky mountains. More than enough power. There were 3 of us and we had plenty of room for luggage. Gas mileage has inproved dramatically from when I had 1,000 miles on it! I ran it with "regular" gas. Changed the break in oil at around 1,800 miles.
I would purchase this car again
I purchased my MKS in Aug, I have 12,000+ miles on it. Needless to say I spend a lot of time driving and I have been very happy with this car. I test drove Cadillac CTS (great tech,too small) STS (2008 had very few tech options, and a floating ride). I had a 2005 Chrysler 300C and loved that car, but nothing had changed in 4 years. I choose the MKS for a number of reasons. Aggressive appearance; loads of tech (Direct Ipod/Iphone support, Bluetooth, GPS, etc) Cooled seats. I avg. 23 miles in mixed driving which I am very happy with. Buying a 1st year model is always going to have issues and I have one too. The driver's side door has problems unlocking. Waiting for part to arrive.
