2013 Lincoln MKZ - ENGINE Failure Complaint (#b16019)

2013 Lincoln MKZ

  • Date of Incident: Dec-01, 2023
  • Date complaint filed: Nov-11, 2024
  • Failed components: ENGINE

Catalytic converter, reduced engine power and toxic fumes. I had it inspected and would cost me $1200, i purchased the vehicle from dealership and was not made aware of the recalls and customer satisfaction program that would have covered the catalytic converter under campaign #20m01. When i became aware of the program it was too late by a couple of months, there was no prior symptoms prior to the failure, i became aware of the problem december 2023 due to warning light (check engine). This has became an inconvenience and a headache especially knowing the problem could have been avoided if i received the "letter" regarding customer satisfaction program but i never did.
