  • Its just OK! - 2017 Lincoln MKC
    By -

    If you have your phone using the Car Play, you cannot use the navigation on the vehicle. It makes you use your Maps on your phone. The SIRI is horrible for the phone. If you are trying to call someone it doesnt always work correctly. So all in all, you cannot use your phone for a phone call if you want to use the autos navigation. Also, there isnt a heat vent near the drivers door. When the heat is on, its freezing on that side of your legs. This is literally the worst car I have ever leased. The car does not have a great turn radius. All of my other vehicles, and I have had some very nice vehicles, they can turn on a dime. This one, no chance. The AWD is terrible in the snow and slides all over the place. The gas mileage is the worst I have ever had. I cannot get over 20 mpg. I am so disappointing with this SUV. If I wanted something this cheap, I would have gone with the regular Edge.

  • A nice SUV, but not perfect. - 2015 Lincoln MKC

    Front seats are extremely comfortable.The leather wrapped steering wheel feels superb. It is a good height for getting in and out of easily. Gas mileage seems to be as advertised. But after driving it for three months, I have regretted my decision to buy. The ride seems harsh and jarring. I wish I had not let the dealer talk me out of waiting for one with the CCD. And why would a luxury vehicle (Select trim) not have a power adjusting steering wheel connected to the memory settings! Even worse, the lever for manually adjusting the steering wheel is very difficult to engage. Cargo space proved to be too limited for a trip with four adults.

  • Awesome car! - 2017 Lincoln MKC

    I bought the 2017 MKC about a month ago and have been very happy with my purchase. Car rides beautifully and is extremely quiet on the inside. Gas millage so far is around 20, for an AWD thats not bad considering the weight of the car. All of the controls are easy to use and figure out. Car does shift a little odd at times but did read thats a problem with Ford products. All in all no complaints so far, driving does not seem to be an effort anymore!

  • 2017 MkC - 2017 Lincoln MKC
    By -

    My wifes car was due for replacement. Having owned 4 Audis and 5 Porsches over the last 40+ years, our first stops were to look at the Audi Q5 and Porsche Macan. Fine vehicles by any standard and no doubt, worth their price. But my closest P/A dealerships are 30+ miles away. And then there is the cost of routine maintenance. Even if it is only once or twice a year the bills do add up. Stopped by our local Lincoln dealer. Family-owned operation, not a mega-dealer.Drove a 2016 MkX and a 2017 MkC. Bought the C. AWD, 2.3 liter turbo 4, 19" wheels and a whole bunch of other stuff. More technology than I will ever need or want. Quiet, solid. No wind noise at 75mph. The 2.3 liter has more than enough low end grunt and can run all day at 80mph.Lincoln is certainly trying to up their game. Call for service and the dealer comes to your house or place of business, drops off a loaner and takes your vehicle in for service. Your vehicle gets, serviced, washed and returned to you. Not a bad deal. Is the MkC comparable to a Q5 or Macan? Not really. But I have an extremely competent smaller SUV that cost between $10k and $20k less than its German counterparts, not counting the service cost differential. My one complaint is that those 19" diameter 45 series tires are not the friendliest on the oxen trails that pass for roads in my state.

  • Happy Lincoln MKC Owner - 2017 Lincoln MKC

    Only have had the car for a week. First Lincoln I have ever leased. Runs great, very smooth, quiet ride and great look. It is a real step up in all facts when compared with a Ford. Too new yet to say much more, but the more I drive it, the more I like it.

  • Great Addition to the Lincoln Line - 2017 Lincoln MKC
    By -

    As another reviewers title says, "This is not your grandpas Lincoln." I thought that when I first test drove one, and I would have used the title here if it hadnt already been used. I have been a Ford product owner since my first new car, and this is my eighth new car. I traded in my 2002 Eddie Bauer Explorer with almost 250,000 miles on it for the MKC. I wanted something a bit smaller with better gas mileage while offering quality. I will say that I always said Id never spend more than $35,000 on a car, but the MKC Reserve certainly stickered for substantially more. However, I believe that for the price and from a comparison standpoint, the MSRP is not out of line. The fit and finish on the vehicle is outstanding, and Ive had a number of compliments on the car from passersby. People really like to comment on my kicking under the rear to open the rear hatch. People also love the welcome lighting in the car. Ive had the car for almost 10 months, and I can honestly say it has exceeded my expectations. Ive read reviews from individuals and ratings companies (e.g., magazine editors) that the mileage estimates are way off. I have to say that is not my experience. Other ratings Ive seen in some reviewers were actually lower than I expected. At speeds from 65 to 73 on the highway, Ive actually hit 34+ mpg. Thats better than the highway mpg on the window sticker. So, this is definitely good mileage. And with over 11,000 miles on the car now, the average mileage since Ive owned it has averaged 24.4 miles. I love BLIS, adaptive cruise control, the heated and cooled seats (cooled are going to be very important in the southern heat), the My Lincoln app, extremely comfortable seats, active park assist and other options. I joke that I actually had to read the manual to learn how to use the car. Oh, and I cant forget the push button start and remote functions, including starting from my phone. And speaking of the phone, my iPhone works great with SYNC 3. Bluetooth works well, voice recognition is great, and the nav system is handy - I had no desire to get the nav system, but it came with the package, and I actually use it to see what traffic is like when going to and from work. And the THX optional sound system is outstanding - its a new way to listen to my music! After 10 months and 11,300 miles, I still find no negative issues with the car. Burgundy velvet with the ebony interior is a great combination, too.

  • Very Pleased - 2017 Lincoln MKC
    By -

    I wanted a luxury crossover with great tech (Apple Car Play was a must-have), a comfortable, quiet ride for my brutal Silicon Valley commutes and great design (other musts: leather, camera, large format sunroof). I also wanted a reasonable value for all that. My finalists were the BMW X series (probably X1 or X3), the Mercedes GLA and the MKC. In the end, its obvious that if I wanted the German nameplate cache, it was going to cost significantly more (5-10K) to get what I could get in a the far more reasonably priced Lincoln. I took the savings and extended the warranty (which I always do on a new car) and I purchased the Premium Maintenance Package (which Ive never done) because Lincolns Concierge/Valet service (which is standard--not part of the pkg) makes ongoing maintenance and service an incredible value. All I need to do is contact the Lincoln concierge via the App, web or call and on the day of my service appt, the valet comes out to my home or office with an equal or better Lincoln and brings mine back when its done. This is not only insanely convenient (I got to try it recently when Lincoln corrected a minor part issue I identified at purchase), but it will ensure that I am punctual and on schedule for my regular service which is always challenging with my work, doing the dealer shuttle, etc. I wont likely even set foot in the dealership for a few years now. As for the ride, performance, comfort, etc., Im completely satisfied on all counts and I really do love the lines, stance and overall design of this car. In fact, its kind of funny, now that Im out there in the Lincoln amidst all the other people driving exactly the same 4 or 5 Germans (and the ubiquitous suburban moms in Subarus), Im kind of liking the contrarian Lincoln luxury SUV statement. Ive never been more satisfied with a new car purchase. One other thing, my Lincoln dealer has been great and they have clearly made a serious commitment to making the Lincoln experience as VIP and upscale as possible. All said, an amazing value for money.
