| 2010 Lincoln MKZ Question | 24Relevance | 5 years ago | Jason Wicks | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hello Scotty Kilmer, i was in the market to buy a 2010 Lincoln mkz. I saw this Lincoln I liked. Here is the link to the car. I took the car for a test drive, seems good, no issues noted. My question, is this car reliable in the long term if I take good care of it and do all the proper maintenance? Am I getting the car for a good deal? What time of maintenance does this car need? Will this car last 200,000-300,000 K miles if I take really good care of it? Thanks Scotty Kilmer for the good videos! | |||||

| No. The Ecoboost engine in those is the subject of a class action lawsuit due to design flaws. Then you know it's overpriced. How do you know? Carfax and similar services are not always accurate because not everything is reported to them. The thing could have been wrecked or flooded and pieced back together in someone's back yard with no one the wiser. You need a good mechanic to inspect the thing before purchase to determine its true condition. | |||||

| Hey Scotty! I'm currently car shopping and I need to know if a 2017 Lincoln mkz Reserve is a good buy. It's from Carvana and it has 77K miles and selling for $16,590 before taxes and registration. It's had no accidents, and the service record shows great maintenance with the transmission fluid being flushed at 44k miles. Should I do it and if not, what cars do you recommend for me that are under 18k? Thank you! | |||||
| Suspension Parts / Tire Wear | 13Relevance | 1 year ago | M_rodrigues022 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I've noticed that my rear tires (2017 Lincoln mkz AWD) have moderate wear on one side each. I found that I need new shocks, however, I wanted to ask if anything else besides worn shocks in the rear can cause one-sided tire wear. I don't have the financial means right now to be playing the guessing game swapping parts. Any help would be appreciated. | |||||

| ... too little and the battery will degrade. I know for a Prius and Toyota hybrid, there is an app called Dr. Prius, where you can check the voltage and the health of the hybrid battery modules. Maybe there is an app or something where you can check the health of the mkz hybrid battery. | |||||

| I have an opportunity to purchase a 2015 Lincoln mkz hybrid. The car has a clean history but it was barely driven having just under 7000 miles on the car. I've never owned a hybrid and am wondering if there is a concern about it being driven so little having a negative impact on the life of the hybrid battery system? | |||||

| Answer to: Why don't mechanics like remanufactured steering racks? | 13Relevance | 2 years ago | izaak | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Thanks for the info everyone. I don't want people to think I am directing any frustration toward mechanics...I was just curious why there is such an insane price difference. I understand a little better now, but knowing this is a common problem with the mkz and how much the cost has jumped in the last year for a steering rack replacement makes people like myself lose trust in brands such as Lincoln/Ford going forward. I talked with other people who have the same car and only paid $1500 (used or remanurfactured) - $2700 (dealer) with labor included and this w ... | |||||

| ... between the dealer OEM steering rack vs the auto parts store one, aren't they the same? Also, the other parts I had replaced wasn't a complaint I know those are wear and tear items, but with the steering rack just surprised me is all. I live in Maine, pot holes and all kinds of different weather up here. I certainly appreciate the input! I am a little bitter toward Lincoln right now, I was going to either sell the mkz or trade it for another car more suited for my daughter. I wanted to wait just a little longer for car prices to come down. | |||||

| If they're done by third-party manufacturers, which I'm assuming yours would be, they're liable to break again before their time. The only real way to fix a steering rack is to use an OEM rack, either remanufactured or new. O'Reilly, etc. pays the lowest bidder to remanufacture parts. You get what you pay for, and the mechanics don't want to mess with aftermarket stuff that takes hours to fix and charge you more for if it breaks again. Nobody works for free, even if it's "guaranteed " to work, there's no written warranty to go along with it. You need to take it back apart if it fails again. My father-in-law's fuel pump went out a year and a half ago, and the mechanic we use wouldn't accept anything but an OEM fuel pump if he got it himself. He has an old E-350. It's the same idea. The mechanic will charge you to replace another rack, it's not on them, and they don't want an irate customer if it fails. Those are mostly wear and tear items. Do you live in a pothole prone area? Also wear and tear, it definitely sounds like you live somewhere pothole prone. I can't comment on this one, I had a 2013 Ford Fusion, it seemed to be fine. | |||||
