Lincoln MKZ extensive rust issue not addressed by dealer on Lincoln MKZ

Some Lincoln MKZ owners report experiencing extensive rust issues on various parts of their vehicles, including the bottom of doors, inner door seams, and wheel wells. Many have expressed dissatisfaction with dealership responses, noting that Lincoln/Ford has not adequately addressed these problems. Reports indicate that rust has been found on both sides of the doors and trunk after just five years of ownership, raising concerns about the quality of materials and engineering in a vehicle of this price range. Additionally, some owners have faced delays of up to two months in receiving approval for repairs or replacements from Lincoln, further exacerbating their frustrations. These experiences have led to questions about the overall quality of American automakers and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
