After all the trouble with the A/C was fixed by a different mechanic the car has been trouble free. I think our problems were mainly poor mechanics at the Ford dealership.. we now have 80,000 miles on it.

2012 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Hybrid is the way to go on this model. The ride is very smooth and quiet. Overall, the vehicle is quite refined. I have about 7000 miles on this car and I am averaging 40.5 mpg. I would probable due better, but 95% of my driving is highway. The car has plenty of power for passing, or merging, and handles like a dream. I have owned several Mercedes prior to this Lincoln and they did not drive nearly as nice as this. I would give Mercedes a thumbs up on seat comfort, but that is it. That is not to say the seats on the MKZ are not comfortable, they are, but Mercedes has slightly better side support. Overall, the MKZ is a joy to drive and very reliable!

Gave up a newer car (2015) to get it back after selling it a few years back! Nothing is quite like it.

At 29, I’m a young car enthusiast, but I’ve already owned 8 vehicles (6 of them luxury brands), and I’m absolutely in love with this car. After just under a year of ownership, I’ve had 0 issues. Standard maintenance is very affordable (certainly less than my previous BMW 7-Series (mistake) and Lexus LS), and the fuel savings are amazing... not to mention the hybrid setup provides for a *very* quiet ride. It’s not quite at the level of the LS, but it is quieter than the 7-Series or an Audi A8 (which—in my opinion—felt more performance-focused, however). My previous purchases were mostly in the large luxury car segment, but the switch to the Lincoln MKZ hybrid just felt so right. If you’re in the market for a car that prioritizes performance, this is not for you. If you’re in the market for a car that makes you feel confident, offers a smooth and quiet ride, is a practical choice, and has pretty good driving dynamics, this car is hands down the best on the market.
