Every model year, scored
The same scoring for every year (how we score). A neutral Unproven or Too New stamp means too few owner reports are on file to judge the year either way.

The fine print: each year’s verdict is computed from public NHTSA complaint and recall records for the Lincoln Mks as a model, not for any individual car. A well-kept example of a weaker year can outlast a neglected strong one. Informational only, so always get a professional pre-purchase inspection.
