2001 Lincoln LS review from North America
"5 out of 10"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First problem was the right rear window. I bought the part and replaced it myself.
At some point near 50K miles, the dealership replaced 1 coil pack and 1 spark plug due to missing. Dealership told me they replaced all of them.
At 76 miles, 800 over the warranty, dealer told me all of the coil packs had to be replaced. Warranty would not cover it - liar!!
Dealership told me that I needed new front brakes, I replaced them myself and the wear on the "bad pads" was only .030 from the new ones I bought; they lied to me.
Now passenger side AC blows hot.
General comments?
Car accelerates amazingly from 55 - 90.
Handles well.
