Key fobs break easily. Engine went out at 130,000miles, replacement engine went out at 90,000. Lots of front end work done. Electrical issues. A/C failed.

Bought this car in 2017. Started noticing i was losing coolant. Went to dealership and they attempted to fix 6 times over the course of a year. Water pump, hoses, and even replaced the entire engine. Filed a law suit. Now I'm stuck with a car that I continually have to fill up with coolant until this lawsuit is complete.!! Always drove a Honda and never had a problem, decided to go Ford and will never go back! *lawsuit complete! Won my suit against Ford. Anyone want to buy a car?

I've had the car for a while as I've driven nothing but Lincolns for over a decade. The car is incredible. Rides great. Great Mileage. Acceleration is awesome. Handling is awesome. The only thing I miss about the older Lincolns is the feeling like your on your couch in your living room..

Unbelievably Reliable

2015 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Bought my MKZ Hybrid with 88K miles to use for visiting my daughter off at college (a 460 mile drive each way). Today the MKZ has 188K miles and has been one of the most problem free cars I have ever owned. First the not so great - the engine is noisy and not fast. The conversion from electric power to gas is louder than I was expecting and takes some time to get used to. The car is not fast - it takes time to go from 0 to cruising speed, so if you're looking for a sports car, keep looking. The great - the car is incredibly reliable. It has 188K miles and I drive it every day. The A/C which has never had work done, is ice cold. The only preventative maintenance I've done except for oil changes is I changed the plugs and coil packs at 110K miles. I changed the transmission fluid at around 140K miles. I've done all of the work myself as preventative maintenance on this car is easy to do. For anyone looking for a hybrid, I would give this car more than 5 stars and would highly recommend. My daughter graduated from college in May and I'm giving it to her this week when she moves off to begin medical school. Jan 2024 Update - My MKZ is still running great at 200K miles and doesn't burn a drop of oil between 5,000 mile changes. My only complaint is that the rear suspension has developed a clunking noise when going over larger bumps, but I blame my wife and the way she aims for potholes as the reason for the noise. Still highly recommend for dependability and comfort.

2014 MKZ 2.0 with the Reserve Group

This is my first American car; I have had Jaguars, a VW, Mercedes and Audis. I test drove a Cadillac, an Acura, a Lexus, an Audi and an Infiniti before I ended up at my local Lincoln dealer. At first I really liked the size of the car and it drove as nice or better that the before mentioned. I thought the interior was really modern and the exterior was as handsome as anything else out there. I have only had the car for a month. I hated maintaining my last black car, so I wish I had waited for the color I wanted. I got a black one with the 19” painted grey wheels, it kind of looks like something Darth Vader might drive. I hate being in a dirty car, I have been dusting every day.
