  Too Many Quirks in MKS - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By patty radvansky - August 4 - 8:46 pm

  I have owned the MKS for 6 months & have had it in the shop 4 times. The week after I purchased car the radio would not come on unless I cut the car on & off several times, plus there is a very loud popping sound from the speakers when I first start car. There are constant rattles in dash. These problems have been going on since I purchased car. They are not certain of cause. Now I have a new rattle in the sunroof.The rattles are so annoying you have to cut radio up to drown out, since the radio does not work half the time this is a problem. Also cup holders are entirely too small. I have been in a rental 3 times since i purchased & currently in one now. Not Happy with purchase at all!

  MKS Is An Awesome Car - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By REWInAmherst - April 26 - 2:23 am

  The 2009 Lincoln MKS is an awesome car. I have previously owned 14 Lincoln Town Cars and 1 Lincoln Aviator and rate the MKS amongst the best of those vehicles when it comes to my driving and ownership experience. I do a great deal of highway driving for my businesses and the MKS drives and handles very well and is a luxurious and comfortable experience over many hours spent on the road between destinations. My MKS has the "Ultimate Package" with all of the technological toys and conveniences which I appreciate greatly. I highly recommend the Lincoln MKS to everyone who is seriously interested in a true American luxury sedan.

  Stealth Luxury - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By StkJck - March 16 - 12:53 am

  I recently was in the market for a replacement car since my 06 300 SRT* lease was up. Searched for used 2006 750LI and Audi A8 and decided on MKS. Price out the door was almost the same. I think it was only prudent to get something more practical but still wanted the toys and boy does this have the toys. My MKS is loaded plus has the optional wood trim package ($400). It is well worth it. It just highlights the luxurious interior.

  ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, ETC. - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By revanitra - February 4 - 9:35 am

  The 2009 Lincoln MKS was my first and only desired car that year. Initially when I leased it everything appeared to be fine. About 1 mo. after lease, door locks began to malfunction opening by themselves without depression of the button on the key fob, next the rear doors began to collect water sounding as though a swimming pool was behind you. The water slished and sloshed back and forth. This was really scary! Next the Sync system has a problem. You can hear all phone conversations like a loud speaker outside of the car!!! Not a Mercedes/BMW!!

  Missing storage - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By medic - January 15 - 10:16 am

  Had this car for just a few weeks 09 leftover dealer driver car. Love the look and style but there is virtually no storage inside for anything. Small door pocket and mini center console that once you put in an iPod in to hook to USB it is full. Cup holders are useless with armrests extended, and with tapered coffee cups you can have only one and the other holder overlaps. I still love it though, shifts a bit hard between gears.

  2009 MKS - A bad mistake - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By tgeorge1241 - October 30 - 2:35 pm

  I bought this car, loaded, used in the summer of 2012. Since it only had 17,000 miles on it I really thought it would be a good car I could drive for several more years. I sold it 7 months later. As far as Im concerned Lincoln(Ford) builds nothing but junk. The acceleration was terrible; pokey and jerky. Id be at a stop light with no one near me for miles and the side assist warning system would starting beeping. Two months in and part of the drivers seat fell apart and a piece of the grill fell out. Gas mileage was terrible and in the rain the MKS drove skidded all over. Ill never buy a Lincoln or Ford again.

  finish not up to imports yet - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By nikkis dad - September 29 - 5:46 am

  the wrap-around finish fo the front drivers side stops like a cut off pipe and cuts into yhe back of the right leg.The trunk headliner is stuck on with double-sided tape which continues to give way.Ford has not come up with a fix for either of these problams.

  Get a lot of looks! - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By tpk - August 23 - 9:53 pm

  After driving SUVs for 10 years, decided to try a car again. Drove the big Audi, Lexus, Volvo, Benz, BMW and then the MKS. Loved the interior and options of the MKS compared to the rest and bought it that day!

  2009 Lincoln MKS 4dr AWD - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By Winton - August 15 - 11:03 pm

  The car glides and handles effortlessly. Lots of interior room both in the front and back. The Sync and Navigation systems are easy to use and work great. I feel its a good car for the money (despite the review from Edmunds) and would definately buy another one!

  Great Package - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By jacob - July 31 - 7:23 am

  I really love the car. It has style,luxury appointments, and a thoroughly modern look. Ford learned alot from Jaguar,I feel they have incorpoated the same approach,quiet luxury. Even the dash looks like something Ian designed himself. Lots has been said about being underpowered. The engine delivers much to my satisfaction while keeping me away from the pump. It took restraint not to give this an 8 cylinder. Lincoln went the right direction, looking ahead to what gas prices will surely be again. MKS is not BMW and doesnt want to be, its more like Volvo meets Acura meets Lexus. Now meet Lincoln.
