has small problem still has problem with exhaust
love the car, I have 4kmiles ,noticed a smell of fumes in car. mostly when I down shift to enter highway ,so bad I need to open window, FL dealer look at it and said they fixed it , still happens called Lincoln and made an appointment with my dealer upstate NY. if the fumes are so great wonder how much with normal acceleration it give out to cab, worried about grand kids in car . hope Lincoln has reading equipment to measure the amount of exhaust in the inside of car, this may be a defect in the mkx , FL did not have that model to test another mkx .as far as gas mileage 24 on the hwy. but only 12 to 13 in traffic ,the car itself look great, rides great, handles great, it has all the options , seat message great, safety very good. at 12k had one recall and still get Odor in car .smells like exhaust car is at dealer for the 6th time can not find trouble , I have a case number waiting for buy back. Lincoln kept car for a few days, smell was corrected for two months. after making a trip to FL it has stared a gain. its may now I will again bring to dealer to check it out .car has 25k still has problem with exhaust ,i have lemon law lawyer on it now, they trysted to fix 3 times an could not. waiting for lemon law decision

I love my MKX
Comfortable and enough get up and go to keep me happy. I really do like this car and feel like driving it is stress free and almost relaxing. Great in snow and on ice with the AWD. I am getting better mileage than the sticker sheet said so am pleased with that. Update: 6 months after taking delivery this car is everything I could have wanted. So glad I purchased

My 1st and last Lincoln MKX!
I am leasing (2yr.lease) this 2016 MKX. My last two leases were MKZ's, they were awesome! I thought I'd try the MKX as a change from last two MKZ's. This is proving to be a huge disappointment. I have most every option you can get and that still does not change things. My MKX is 8 months old with only 5,000 miles on it. I have had nothing but quirky and annoying problems. While driving at night the "Service Headlamps Light" came on and then they quit working minutes later. I drove home with only the parking lamps on. The dealer reset the computer and they worked again. Since then that warning light has come on briefly and then gone back off. I've taken it back and they can find any fault codes stored in the computer. The carpeting has pulled away from the sills on two of the four doors. I had a very annoying rattle in the all glass moon roof. It took the dealer a week to pinpoint and repair. Also I will get exhaust fumes in the cabin when I need to accelerate quickly. The dealer changed the cabin air filter, that did nothing. The most annoying thing and something they are aware of is that hood flexes while driving on the highway. You can actually see it moving. I am afraid it's going to weaken the latch and come loose while driving. They said the flexing is because the hood is fiberglass?? I've owned many cars, expensive and inexpensive ones. Not one of them ever had a hood that flexed. The dealer has assured me that the hood will not come open, I am not convinced. An almost $60,000 vehicle should not have this issue or any other issues like I've experienced. For those of you who own a 2016/2017 MKX watch your hood as you go down the highway and you'll see what I am talking about. Hopefully the 2018 MKX went back to the drawing board before they began production?

My Wife Bought Seats
This car is so comfortable my wife and I drove from Birmingham, Alabama to Ventura, Calif. stopping only for gas and food. 30 hours in the saddle splitting the driver responsibilities. The back end and back seat were loaded full of stuff so we could only recline the front seat slightly to nap. Didn't matter. We never felt out of sorts. The main reason she bought this vehicle was for the seats. She sat in about 15 other similar cars but bought the Lincoln because it had "the most comfortable seats." It has enough power on tap (305 hp) to do anything (within reason) including 80 - 90 mph on those long deserted freeways without flinching. Handles and drives really well in any city situation. Much better than I expected from a Lincoln. So far not one repair required (52,000 miles). Not even tires. Only routine oil changes. If you are in the market for something comfortable you owe it to youself, and your deriere, to at least "sit" in one before you buy anything.
Land Turd
Well, I just got rid of my 2016 Lincoln MKX. Here are the reasons why: 1. Driver side seat kept moving on its own for no reason...really 2. Very bad pick-up. I must have had a car with some sort of transmission problem that no one could ever find, but stepping on the gas would almost make the car stall. This was a tempermental problem. Some days it would be fine. Forget about passing someone on the highway on a Lincoln bad day. 3. When I changed gears from park to drive or park to reverse, the radio would go on 4. Computer would freeze unpredictably even when driving. 5. I have been a driver of many different cars and I know how to defrost a windshield. It was impossible to get the defrost to actually do its job. Did not matter setting,heat,AC,windows open, windows closed, recycle. Nothing worked. I had to literally use my hand to wipe the condensation to avoid getting into an accident. 6. Heating system is not balanced regardless of setting.. In winter, your feet would be on fire and you would freeze your face off. 7. Would constantly throw codes, which would magically disappear without a trace. After many trips to the dealer, and their inability to find any problems, I gave up. Gone!
