Only picked it up today, but totally blown away. Very nice. Usually in the first few hours I can see the flaws, but so far, none seen. Admittedly, we got all the bells and whistles, and there are more than one needs or probably wants. There will be a bit of a learning curve, for sure, on all the technology package. We think the new BMW will find it lonely in the garage while the MKX is on the road. Very comfortable all round. Great buy, very, very happy.

GAS Problem on MKX

2016 Lincoln MKX Premiere 4dr SUV AWD (3.7L 6cyl 6A)

I bought a 2016 Lincoln MKX with 19,000 miles on it. I noticed that it wan't getting the gas mileage that the sticker price showed 23 city and 28 Highway. I am getting anywhere from 14 mpg to 18 mpg. I called the service dept at Lincoln and he told me that it was the summer gas that is mixed. I don't quiet understand this but there is nothing Lincoln could do about it and customers are complaining about it. Plus I have had several things in the service to fix. I went from Cadiallac back to Lincoln and I regret my decision.

We liked a lot of the cars features however the rear hatch would not lock and open by itself. The dealer was unable to repair in spite having it serviced many times

This is not a $50,000 dollar car. That simple.

This vehicle is nothing more than an over glorified Edge. It is NOT a Mercedes, BMW, or Audi and should NOT be compared as such. Cadillac has nicer interiors and ride. No rear USB, did have a inverter though. Back seat comfort is marginal at best and the glass roof impedes head room. Mileage on my AWD is terrible at 17. Infotainment is better with Sync3 but still not on par with the competition by any means. It SCARES me to think that with such poor electronics now, Ford is actually considering driverless vehicles in the future. We will all perish! The interior has cheap materials that are not very well thought through. There is no sliding rear seat and for the money their should be. The front is cramped with their huge console and the cargo area is chopped by the sloping hatch and drooping roofline. The 2.7L engine has good pull but terrible fuel economy and only a 6 speed auto transmission. Options are expensive on this vehicle. To get led headlamps and a subpar stereo will cost $4,400 and it is not by any means best in class! This is clearly NOT a well thought out vehicle and NOT worth the money.

New review. 2017 Black Label MKX, closest Black Label dealer still 5 hours away but car quality much better than my 2016. Front leg room on driver side needs a little more space. Have not experienced the problems my previous review noted.

Never Lincoln

Worst of the last 3 Lincolns I've owned. 14000 and vehicle quit running at 55mph on a 2 lane highway with a lot of truck and car traffic. Took Lincoln Roadside Assistance 3 hours to get to the vehicle to have it towed. Stay away from Ford and Lincoln.

Couldn’t wait to get rid of it

I owned this car for two and a half years. Right after the warranty ran out I had to buy new tires and brakes. The car would slide in the snow and it couldn’t go up hills. Then the gps went right in the middle of my trip. They did fix that for free but I went straight to another dealership and bought anew car. I was afraid of what would go next. I didn’t want to find out. I went to Sam’ Club for the tires and they said we are getting a lot of these. Not reassuring.
