NOTICED SLUGGISHNESS ON INTERSTATE AND EXITED AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE EXIT THAT WAS APPROXIMATELY 1 MILE AWAY. WHEN EXITING INTERSTATE AND COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT THE STOP SIGN, IT DIED AND WOULD NOT START. IT WAS BLOCKING THE SINGLE TURNING LANE. IT WAS TURNING OVER VERY WELL BUT SEEMED TO BE LACKING FUEL MAYBE. HAD IT TOWED TO LOCAL MECHANIC SHOP. NO WORD BACK FROM THEM YET. JUST HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP BEFORE WE BOUGHT IT. IT WAS AN EMPLOYEE'S VEHICLE THAT WORKED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND I SUSPECT THE SO-CALLED REPAIR WAS PENCIL WHIPPED AND NOT REALLY REPAIRED BY THE DEALERSHIP. IT WAS A "CERTIFIED " CAR AND WE PAID A PREMIUM PRICE FOR IT AND I'M STILL PAYING!

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
