CAR IS MOVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND SUDDENLY SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY AND STOPS. LUCKILY CAR BEHIND WAS ABLE TO STOP AVOIDING A REAR-END COLLISION. MY WIFE WHO WAS DRIVING DENIES TOUCHING ANY SHIFTING BUTTONS ON THE DASHBOARD. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE START/STOP ENGINE BUTTON IT IS VERY POSSIBLE TO TOUCH THE STOP ENGINE BUTTON IF TRYING TO ADJUST THE RADIO OR CLIMATE CONTROLS WHICH ARE LOCATED ADJACENT TO THE STOP/START ENGINE CONTROL BUTTON. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW! WHILE YOU MUST DEPRESS THE BRAKE TO START THE CAR, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS BRUSH THE CONTROL BUTTON TO STOP EVERYTHING WHILE MOVING.

1.) FRONT BUMPER COVER DEVELOPED A BULGE (CAME A LOOSE) JUNE 2016 ON RIGHT FRONT SIDE BECAUSE THE BUMPER TABS ARE TOO THIN OR FLIMSY AND WILL NOT HOLD BUMPER COVER UNDERNEATH THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY PROPERLY. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT BY THE LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO REPAIR MY CAR BUMPER FOR ONE WHOLE YEAR. THE CAR DEALERSHIP THEY SENT ME TO CANNOT FIX THIS BUMPER BECAUSE IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, THEY ACTUALLY MAKE THE BULGE ON BUMPER WORSE. LINCOLN KNOWS THE BUMPER COVER IS DEFECTIVE AND HAS FAILED TO COME UP WITH A FIX THAT WILL LAST. THIS IS POOR WORKMANSHIP BY LINCOLN. CAR WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY. I WANT LINCOLN TO FIX MY CAR PROPERLY OR GIVE ME ANOTHER CAR OF EQUAL VALUE. 2.) BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT FRONT DOOR EXTERIOR BOTTOM BLACK PLASTIC DOOR PANELS WITH CHROME INSERTS HAVE COME LOOSE AND SHAKE WHEN OPENING OR CLOSING DOORS. THIS IS POOR WORKMANSHIP BY LINCOLN. CAR WAS STATIONARY AND IN MY DRIVEWAY.

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY 2016 MKX, PURCHASED IN JUNE OF 2016. THE EXHAUST SYSTEM HAS BEEN LEAKING INTO THE CABIN. I ACTUALLY TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE, BUT THE CAR DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE. THEY CLEANED UNDERNEATH THE EXHAUST LINES AND IT HAS IMPROVED. THE VEHICLE IS USUALLY IN MOTION, I LIVE IN AN AREA WITH HILLS USUALLY AFTER CLIMBING UP A HILL OF A CITY STREET. I HAVE NOTICED THE SMELL LINGERING EVEN AFTER I'VE BEEN OUT OF THE CAR. I'VE SEEN ON OTHER SITES WHERE OTHER LINCOLN OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED AS WELL. I'M POSTING THIS MESSAGE AS I BELIEVE THE EXHAUST SYSTEM ISSUE FOR FORD IS BEYOND JUST THE FORD LINE AND ALSO LINCOLN.

2016 LINCOLN MKX - FWD- LOSES BALANCE WHEN ACCELERATED. ITS WOBBLES/ SWIRLS WHEN STEPPED ON THE GAS ON A CITY STREET OR ON A HIGHWAY. WHEN WE BROUGHT THE CAR IN, LINCOLN DEALERSHIP SERVICES FOREMAN, ADVISER AND DIRECTOR CLAIMED ITS THEIR MKX FWD NORMAL CHARACTERISTICS. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT DISCLOSE THIS DEFECTIVE DESIGN AT THE TIME OF PURCHASING. THERE ARE NO FIXES, AND THE MKX AWD DOES NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM/CHARACTERISTICS. WE HAVE CONTACT THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND THE MANAGER SAID THEY TRUSTED THEIR SERVICES ENGINEERS THAT ITS THE NORMAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MKX AWD. BOTH THE ADVISER AND THE CORPORATE MANAGER SAID FOR US TO REPORT TO OUR INSURANCE COMPANY IF WE GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECTIVE DESIGN. WE BOUGHT A VERY EXPENSIVE CAR, BUT UNABLE TO USE ITS ABILITIES, BECAUSE IT IS UNSAFE TO ACCELERATE. WHO WOULD BUY A VERY EXPENSIVE CAR AND AFRAID TO STEP ON THE GAS? LINCOLN NEEDS TO DISCLOSE THE MKX FWD- DEFECTIVE DESIGNS THAT THEY CLAIMED TO BE THE NORMAL CHARACTERISTICS TO THEIR CUSTOMERS AT THE TIME OF BUYING. OR THEY NEED TO STOP PUTTING THE ECO BOOST ENG ON THE FWD MKX CARS.

IN JULY 2016 I BOUGHT A NEW LINCOLN MKX WITH THE 2.7 ECO ENGINE. FROM DAY ONE I NOTICED FIBERGLASS PARTICLES ON THE REAR GLASS , AFTER 300 MILES IT WAS SO BAD I HAD TO WASH IT EVERY DAY , IT WAS ALSO IN SIDE ALL OVER THE INTERIOR. I HAD IT ON MY FACE AS WELL AS MY FAMILY. I CONTACTED LINCOLN AND THEY DENIED USING FIBERGLASS ON THEIR VEHICLES. LINCOLN TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO MY DEALER AND I DID AFTER SEVERAL VISITS THEY DISCOVERED IT WAS COMING FROM THE EXHAUST AND CONTACTED LINCOLN . IN THE MEANTIME I STARTED COUGHING AND HAD SEVERE THROAT IRATATION. I STARTED TO CALL LINCOLN CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME WAS TOLD TO STOP CALLING. THE DEALER DID NOT SEEM TO GET ANY WHERE WITH THIS PROBLEM. LINCOLN ADVISED ME TO KEEP THE WINDOWS UP, I REQUESTED A LOANER VEHICLE TILL THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED AND WAS TOLD NO BECAUSE THE VEHICLE RAN AND WAS OPERATIONAL THEY COULD NOT DO THIS. AFTER 2800 MILES AND 3 MONTHS OF OWNER SHIP I WAS FORCED TO TRADE IT IN AND TAKE A $18,000.00 DOLLARS LOSS. I WENT TO THE VA HOSPITAL AND WAS TOLD TO STAY AWAY FROM THE MKX AFTER EXAMS BECAUSE FIBERGLASS WILL CAUSE THESE COUGHING AND IRATITAON PROBLEMS, SYMPTOMS I DOCUMENTED THIS ON UTUBE UNDER - [ 2016 LINCOLN MKX PROBLEMS.] BEING A VET AND ON DISABILITY THE LOSS WAS GREAT . I DO FEEL SORRY FOR THE OTHERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BIGGEST LOSS I EVER HAD ON AN AUTOMOBILE

ON MARCH 15, 2016 (1,065 MILES), DRIVING VEHICLE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION ON A BUSY STREET TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY ON-RAMP, VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE IN MOTION AND APPEARED TO ENTER "ACCESSORY MODE". WAS ABLE TO BRING VEHICLE TO STOP (IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION), PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. BROUGHT IT IMMEDIATELY TO LINCOLN SERVICE DEPARTMENT. SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD VEHICLE FOR TWO DAYS AND COULD NOT DIAGNOSE OR REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. GAVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO ME WITHOUT ATTEMPTING ANY REPAIRS. ON MAY 14, 2016 (2,838 MILES), DRIVING AT LOW SPEED ON BACK ROADS, VEHICLE LOST POWER AGAIN WHILE IN MOTION AND ENTERED ACCESSORY MODE. BROUGHT IT IMMEDIATELY TO LINCOLN SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE, BUT FOUND A TSB THAT THEY THOUGHT WOULD APPLY TO THE ISSUE. THE TECHNICIANS REPROGRAMMED THE SOFTWARE IN THE POWER CONTROL MODULE AND GAVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO ME. ON JUNE 25, 2016 (3,663 MILES), DRIVING AT LOW SPEED ON A MAIN ROAD, VEHICLE LOST POWER AGAIN WHILE IN MOTION AND ENTERED ACCESSORY MODE. BROUGHT IT IMMEDIATELY TO LINCOLN SERVICE DEPARTMENT.

I WAS DRIVING TO MY SON'S HOUSE WHEN THE CAR LOST POWER THERE WAS A CHIME WARNING AND ON THE DASH A MENU STARTING THE HILL ASSIST WAS NOT AVAILABLE THE ENGINE CONTINUE TO RUN BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE WHEN I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR WOULD ONLY DUE ABOUT 3 MILES AT IDLE SPEED. WAS ABLE RESTART IT AND MAKE BACK HOME, ON THE NEXT DAY10/09/16 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM THIS TIME I COULD NOT GET IT TO ACCELERATE I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS SUNDAY THE DEALER WAS CLOSED. I CALLED THE DEALER ON MONDAY AND TOLD HIM WHAT HAPPEN AND HE SAID THEY WERE WORKING ON IT. THEY CALLED LATER AND SAID IT WAS THROTTLE CONTROL AND A COUPLE OF ERROR CODES THAT REQUIRED UP DATING P2111, U0415 AND U0416. THEY ALSO REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY. THEY ALSO NOTED THEY DROVE IT 9 MILES AND NOTED THAT ALL OK AT THIS TIME. THAT LAST COMMENT SOUNDS THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM HAD I BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE AT RUSH HOUR I MIGHT NOT BE WRITING THIS TO COMPLAIN. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CAR SLOWS ON SO FAST THAT THE CAR BEHIND DOESN'T KNOW YOU HAVE A PROBLEM BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT BRAKING WHICH MEANS YOUR BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON AND HE MORE THAN LIKELY IS GOING TO HIT YOU. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENS IS QUIET SCARY BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS HAPPENING.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE ALMOST KILLED IN THE FAST LANE ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN OUR 2016 LINCOLN MKX SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY, WE HAD TO CROSS THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC WHEN IT STARTED AGAIN ONLY TO SHUT DOWN AGAIN, WE WERE TERRIFIED, IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE A RECALL WAS JUST ISSUED ON IT CALLED "THROTTLE BODY REPAIR" I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER TO REPLACE THIS DEFECTIVE PART , NOT REPAIR IT AND HE DID SO. OUR SERVICE MANAGER WAS PROACTIVE IN THIS AND I PRAY TO GOD WE NEVER EXPERIENCE THIS TYPE OF SITUATION AGAIN. !

I WAS DRIVING IN THE CENTER LANE ON THE BROOKLYN QUEENS EXPRESSWAY TRAVELING HOME FROM ASTORIA, QUEENS TO MY HOME IN BROOKLYN. HAVING PASSED THE ATLANTIC AVENUE EXIT AT APPROXIMATELY 3:15 PM AND PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL, THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR COULD ONLY GO ABOUT 10 MILES AN HOUR. THE BQE AT THIS POINT HAS NO SHOULDER TO PULL OVER IN. BY SOME SAVING GRACE, I WAS ABLE TO GLIDE OFF AT THE HAMILTON AVENUE EXIT. THE LINCOLN TOW ARRIVED AT APPROXIMATELY 5:30PM. THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE CLOSED AT 5:30 SO I WAS TOWED HOME. THE NEXT MORNING, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 31 I CALLED LINCOLN FOR A TOW TO THE DEALERSHIP (DANA FORD, STATEN ISLAND) THAT LEASED THE CAR TO ME. THE LINCOLN SERVICE MANAGER, ANTHONY FALLACARO, ASSISTED ME. HE EXPLAINED IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND MOTOR WHICH WERE DEFECTIVE AND MANY CONSUMERS HAVE HAD PROBLEMS. MY MILEAGE AT THIS POINT WAS 2307 MILES, QUITE LOW FOR EIGHT MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP. HOWEVER, FORD/LINCOLN HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. YET, THEY HAD TO MAKE NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS TO THE NEW PART BECAUSE INSTALLING THE SAME PART WOULD CONTINUE TO CAUSE PROBLEMS. I CALLED LINCOLN ON WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 31 2016 AND SPOKE TO MELISSA AND FORMALLY LOGGED A COMPLAINT (CAS - 10455614-D7Z7N8). I EXPRESSED THAT THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED TO A NEW CAR, I LOST CONFIDENCE IN DRIVING THIS CAR AND AM STUCK WITH IT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE LEASE.
