1995 Lincoln Town Car Executive from North America - Comments

Driver's side window does not roll down anymore. Motor was weak when I bought it. Luckily it's gotten stuck in the "up" position.

A/C does not work. Don't want to get it fixed.

Outside temperature gauge is temperamental. Works on hot days and shows the correct temperature, but otherwise readings are wrong.

Leaking oil and fluids. Need to add a quart or two from time to time. I have not figured out how much is leaking per month.

Door storage covers don't stay closed for passengers. Springs open after a minute even if closed.

Driver's door pull handle broken. I open the storage compartment in the door to pull the door shut.

Windshield wiper motor died last weekend.

Coming from a Toyota Corolla, this car's super comfortable. It's so nice at this mileage, can only imagine what it must have been when it was new.

I love the keyless entry touch pad. I can leave my keys in the car itself. No problem with getting locked out (happened a couple of times with my Corolla).

Gives you a feeling of safety and makes you feel relaxed while driving.

Handling is not that great, you need to keep a close eye on traffic to prevent last minute maneuvers.

Not so great in snow either. Last winter I drifted across two lanes while trying to stop for a red light. Spins out quite easily, but that could be because I am still not used to driving a rear-wheel drive boat. The Corolla was very predictable in snow.

Gas mileage is currently at 15 MPG. The mileage on the digital display is not accurate. It shows some 4 MPG above what can be calculated. I got 300 miles on a 20 gallon tank fill, the display showed an average of 19.4 MPG.

Update, 9/01/2007.

I had a knowledgeable friend look it over and we both confirmed there were NO leaks. The engine is also burning very little oil if at all. The service center must have messed up the last oil change which is why I ran out of oil well before the scheduled change.

Happier now with my Lincoln, only cosmetic and A/C issues which are not bad for a car with 180000 miles!

I am the original reviewer. Just wanted to add that when I tried the driver's side window, it worked! I guess it just does not work in warmer weather, probably something getting jammed up inside.

So glad I did not have it fixed during the summer, although it was a bit uncomfortable. It's so nice to have the feeling of something automatically fix itself.
