LINCOLN MKT 2014 HAS STALLED THREE TIMES. I HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN IT TO A DEALER FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. IT HAS NOT EVEN BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE THE CAR CAME BACK AFTER A 1 MONTH OF REPAIR FROM THE DEALER THAT MY CAR DOES NOT START. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, THEY GAVE A BOOST WHICH MADE THE CAR START BUT AFTER LEAVING THE ENGINE RUNNING FOR 1 HOUR AND TURNING IT OFF, THIS CAR DOES NOT START! LINCOLNS MKT HAS SERIOUS CAR DEFECTS THAT EVEN THEIR TRAINED MECHANICS DON'T SEEM TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEMS THIS CAR HAS GIVEN ME. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW AND SINCE 2014 CAR IS UNDER 100000MILES AND HAS STALLED THREE TIMES! FYI THE DEALER CHANGED MY CAR BATTERY AND IT HAS NOT EVEN BEEN A YEAR WITH A NEW BATTERY!!! *TR
