MKX

  • 40,000 miles
10 miles after starting our 2017 Lincoln Mkx it suddenly gave me the warning code of error: Vehicle shutting down now. The car coasted across 5 lanes of speeding traffic. I almost died with our small child in the car. The car restarted fine on the side of the road. Sanderson Lincoln towed the car and did the bare minimum tests on the car per the manufacturer standards. I requested them to do more as this exact same situation has happened to other Lincoln owners multiple times in one car. There has also been a recall on this on previous years. This vehicle also had some strange acceleration issues when we initially bought it and it was dismissed by the servicer. Lincoln customer service now told us we are out of lemon law and they cannot help us. Duh. Lincoln customer service also did shady things to us. They would call us at 11pm Florida time from a dummy phone line so that they could "say" they called us. The servicer replaced our battery and called it a day. Initially the manufacturer seemed outraged that the battery completely fried on the vehicle during testing....then they suddenly changed their tune and said we were out of lemon law in our state.
