Check for proper operation of all interior accessories, including heated/motorized seats, the sunroof and the automatic climate control system.
Especially on earlier models, shoppers are advised to check the MKX’s underside (or have it checked professionally) for signs of leakage from the transmission, differential or ‘PTU’ – which splits power up between the axles for the AWD system. Numerous owners have noted issues with these components leaking, which could cause problems.
Finally, check for squeaks and rattles from the MKX’s interior, especially around the seats and sunroof. Note that if you’re unsure of the service history of the MKX you’re considering, budgeting for a full tune-up and fluid change is a good idea.
The Verdict Of A Used Lincoln MKX: The MKX’s unique style and surprisingly sporty performance are likely to be big draws to it as a used vehicle, though a full check-over by a mechanic should be considered mandatory.
