1989 Lincoln Mk Vii Lsc on 2040-cars
Palm Springs, California, United States
|
This beautiful and rare LSC was purchased three years ago in an Estate Sale, with only 7700 original, one owner miles. The car now has just over 10,000 miles, because it is a joy to own and drive. I have upgraded the AC to 134, added new tires, (due to age of originals), and had a new power window unit installed in the passenger door. Service and regular maintenance maintained regularly at the local Ford/Lincoln dealership. Dealership management and service people believe this to be one of the finest Lincoln's ever built.
The metallic Burgundy finish is as perfect as the day it was built. Never any body or paint work, anywhere. The finish "glistens" in the sun, and draws attention to its presence in todays sea of look alike cars. The chrome is flawless, bright, clear, and has absolutely no pitting, rust, not even a scratch. The overall "fit and finish" is beyond expectation, and would rival most luxury cars being built today. Ford had it right on this model. The headlights, tail lights, and fog lights are all perfectly clear, no oxidation or scratches. The fog lights still wear the factory covers to protect them from stone chips. Because the LSC model had larger tires and standard, BBS wheels, "mud-flaps" were included. They remain wrapped in the original factory package, in the trunk, thankfully, never installed. The BBS wheels are all in perfect condition, no curb rash, no scratches, and no discoloration of the brushed aluminum finish. The interior includes optional "Recaro" black leather seats. There is absolutely no wear, and not a flaw to be found. The original Lincoln floor mats still cover the perfect black carpeting. All electrical accessories work as designed and intended. The smooth V8 perform's, and handles incredibly well. The powerful 5.0 V8 is spirited, and the road handling is much better than nearly any other Detroit product. Curvy mountain roads are a joy, and an unexpected pleasure for an American car of this vintage. There are still a few nice LSC's out there - but its not likely you'll ever see one as fine as this automobile. Car is advertised locally, and could be pulled from auction at any time. Owner will proudly show the car to you personally, or to an appraiser, if you choose. Seller will assist in coordination of shipping. if needed. |

MyFord Touch getting buttons and knobs back to counter criticisms
Mon, 17 Jun 2013Ford deserves credit for being a front-runner in offering advanced infotainment technology with its Sync and MyFord Touch systems, but continued consumer complaints over its confusing touchscreen interface and capacitive controls has made the automaker relent. The Wall Street Journal reports that physical buttons and knobs for controlling tuning and volume will be coming back to Ford vehicles equipped with the controversial infotainment system.
The 2013 F-150 with MyFord Touch gives us a glimpse of what the new layout with buttons and knobs might look like, as Ford says a similar balance of touch screen capability and buttons/knobs are what's being planned for future models. And, while capacitive controls have no fans in the halls of Autoblog, many of Ford's models with MyFord Touch do have a large physical knob for adjusting volume with integrated buttons for tuning and advancing tracks, though most of those are models with the optional upgraded Sony Audio system. Lincoln models with MyLincoln Touch, however, feature only capacitive controls for all stereo and climate functions.
Despite receiving enough complaints to throw buttons and knobs back into the mix (a move that reminds us of BMW's iDrive trajectory, among others), Ford reports that Sync and MyFord Touch have still been sold on 79 percent of its 2013 model year vehicles, a number it claims is double the rate that Honda and Toyota are getting for their infotainment systems. Ford also states that owners who do opt for the duo of technologies are more satisfied with overall vehicle quality than those who don't have it.
Ford recalls Explorer, Flex, Taurus for parking brakes
Wed, Jul 22 2015Ford announced a recall of nearly 8,000 vehicles spread across a broad range of models for a faulty parking brake, which might not engage fully. The automaker has not received any reports of accidents or injuries resulting from the issue. The recall affects certain examples of the 2015-16 Ford Explorer, the 2015 Taurus, and the 2015 Flex. The 2015 Lincoln MKS and MKT are also included in the campaign. The vehicles in question were assembled at the company's Chicago and Oakville (Ontario) plants from May 4 to May 23. All told, 7,165 of the affected vehicles are estimated to be in the United States, with another 799 in Canada, and a solitary example in Mexico. In order to address the issue, owners are asked to bring the affected vehicles their local dealership, where technicians will inspect the vehicle and where necessary, replace the parking brake control assembly.

Lincoln says MKZ supply crisis over
Mon, 25 Mar 2013After an excessive number of recalls on the 2013 Escape and Fusion, we can't really fault Ford for being a little extra cautious with the launch of the 2013 Lincoln MKZ. Last month, we reported that dealer supply of the car was extremely limited due to more attention being paid to quality checks of cars rolling off the assembly line, which led to a 73-percent drop in MKZ sales from last year on top of a 32-year low in monthly sales for Lincoln in January.
The reason for the delay was that the sedans were being shipped from the Hermosillo, Mexico assembly plant to be inspected even closer at Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan plant before they were able to head to dealers. Things seem to be straightening out for Lincoln and the MKZ's production now, as Automotive News is reporting that supply should be up to a "normal level" by the end of this month.
