2017 Lincoln MKZ - ENGINE Failure Complaint (#b0c0ae)

2017 Lincoln MKZ

  • Date of Incident: Apr-17, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Apr-17, 2024
  • Failed components: ENGINE

In february of 2024, my check engine light came on. I took it to a dealership who informed that it was a spark plug issue and that they had replaced it. The check engine light came on again fairly soon after, and before i could get it back to the dealership the car died. I had it towed there and was told that the battery needed to be replaced. The day after i got my car back, the light came back on again. After taking it back to the dealership, it was determined to be an engine issue, with coolant leaking everywhere (which is what ruined the spark plug and battery. ) the estimate to fix this issue is $6,550. 00. My lincoln mkz has approximately 60,000 miles and one owner who took care of the maintenance religiously - this should not be happening.
