1994 Lincoln Mark Viii, Red, 56k Original Miles, Excellent Condition! on 2040-cars
United States
|
For your consideration is a red 1994 Lincoln Mark III with 56,000 original miles! I'm the second owner of this car and purchased it from Momentum Lincoln Mercury in Monroe, Michigan in 2010 where it was traded in by the original owner. The car is powered by the original 4.6 liter, 280 horsepower engine. The interior has grey leather, in excellent condition. The body is in very good condition with no rust, and a few very minor dings, although nothing significant, with the exception of the rear bumper which has faded and peeled and needs to be repainted. Also, the windshield has a crack and will need to be replaced. Mechanically, the car is in excellent condition and has been professionally maintained through the Lincoln dealership and other reputable facilities. The only mechanical issue of note is the transmission, which is slipping. A few years ago, the air ride suspension was professionally replaced with a Strutmasters coil suspension at a cost of in excess of $1,500.00. Upon request, the original air ride suspension will be included, in boxes, with the car. Everything is functioning properly on the vehicle, the exception of the items listed above. The tires on the car are Uniroyal and have over 50% tread. The original manuals are included with the car. With a limited amount of repair, this car will provide years of pleasure and service. I would keep it myself, although I have other cars in my collection that are currently the focus of my attention. Please ask all questions before bidding. The vehicle is being sold, "as-is," with no warranties expressly stated or implied; no refunds will be issued. Thank you for viewing this listing and good luck bidding! |

2013 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost
Tue, 13 Nov 2012A Bench-Warmer In Waiting
I hail from Cleveland, and that means I'm familiar with sports franchises that are always falling short of championships. The Indians, the Browns, the Cavs - they've all come close, but being a resident of C-Town means learning to appreciate the effort more than a reward that never seems to come. So I can appreciate the situation in which Lincoln finds itself today, one where the past is full of repeated attempts to be competitive, and looming on the future's horizon is the next hope on which everything hinges.
That next hope for Lincoln is not the car you see here, but rather the smaller, all-new 2013 MKZ sedan. Like LeBron James entering Gund Arena for the first time, the MKZ will enter dealerships this fall as the brand's chosen savior, markedly more stylish, advanced and desirable than anything offered by Lincoln in recent memory. And that would make this car, the 2013 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost, one of the other 20 guys whose names I can't remember who played alongside LeBron during his rookie season.
Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.
Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
