    Car unlocks after leaving car

    Dear Akirby thanks for your response we check with no keys (fobs) near the vehicle. Today we tried entering the permanent access code to the “Keyless Entry System” from the card given to us when brand new (in 2012) Thus far (about 3 hours ago) the car remains locked. This is trial and error process for us. Maybe this is a printed circuit card replacement problem? Again - many thanks
  6. Just had a new battery installed, and now my key fob will only operate the door locks from the driver's door. Before new battery, could lock car by touching any door handle, in addition to all doors unlocking when passenger door unlocked first. What's happened? I checked settings/vehicle, AutoUnlock is checked, what am I missing? Thanx in advance for your help.

    Car unlocks after leaving car

    How are you testing whether it’s locked or not? Are you sure there is no key near the vehicle?
  8. The problem I am experiencing is that the car keeps unlocking after we have left the car locked - we never know if the car has remained locked - and we have street parking. We have closed down “Sync” and rebooted but this did not fix the problem Requesting any actions we can take to fix the problem
  9. Key fob and cell phone fell out of my pants pocket between the driver's seat and the center console. The phone slid forward and caught up in the front seat frame, but the key fob is nowhere to be found! The car knows it's in there since I can start it without the second key fob near it. I have felt and looked around under seats front and back including running the driver's seat full front and full back but nothing shows up. Before I start tearing out seats, etc., any ideas of where the key fob could get caught up in something? Thanks,

    2017 MKX programming key location

  11. Earlier
  12. Did you look in the owners manual? I think it’s in the bottom of the center console but check the manual.
  13. I have purchased a third key for our 2017 MKX, I am trying to find the location of the key programming slot for it so I can program the new key

    "Drive Control Malfunction, Service Required

    The final diagnosis for my MKX was the wire harness for the drive control was compromised by a little creature, probably a ground squirrel, as I do have a population of those on my property. The harness is beneath the vehicle and near each wheel and I was told that the wire harness insulation is made from a soy based material so the ground squirrel saw it as food. Typically my MKX is in the garage so it is exempt from critter chew but I had a 3 week period that my garage was being used to store some items so my car sat outside for that period of time. I hope this helps.

    Howdy from Texas!

    Just made my 1st post w/ a question in the Tires & Wheels forum. I hope someone will respond soon to my question. - Thanks
  16. What BRAND(S) tires in optional size 245/50R-20 did Ford factory install on the 2018 Lincoln MKX - Reserve models?

    Hi, Yes the navigation works fine when I type the address in on the screen.

    Try “destination address”. Does the nav work with manual input?

    Voice Command issue and more

    Hi. I recently noticed hit the voice command button to request navigation. To my surprise the "Address" command is no longer available. There are just a handful of radio related commands. Any Ideas what happened or how to fix this? Also, and I'm not sure if this is related but when I first bought the car the dealership set the background color of my touchscreen to blue. Now its back to black and I can't find how to change it back. Any thoughts on this would also be very much appreciated.

    Wheel paint?

    I'm not sure to he honest although since my first post I contacted a local Lincoln service manager who is.going to look up my wheel finish using my VIN.

    Wheel paint?

    Wheel paint?

    Greetings I just bought a 2011 MKX that is so far a great vehicle but the wheels have some chips and rusty areas that.id like to repair. My question is, is there a specific touch up paint available either from Lincoln or aftermarket sources that will match the color exactly? Thanks in advance for any assistance provided
  24. So I figured out a much faster and easier trick to pop it back into place. I stuck a piece of gorilla tape to the side of the button and was able to use it to pull it back into space. No dash board unassembly needed.
  25. My 2011 Mkx just ate the push start as well so now I'm stranded at work. Any advice on a quick fix so I can go home?
  26. Yes it’s similar to the Aisin design. Go test drive any Ford hybrid made since 2011 - they all use the same one. And for the last time these e-cvts have nothing in common with cvts.
  27. As is often said in the automotive media, CVTs are not for everyone. The same may be said of DCTs or any other drivetrain iteration. I owned a Veloster with a dual clutch and absolutely loved the DCT...some drivers likely cursed them. Later this year we'll get more tech info (is there still a Toyota design connection?) and driving impressions on Ford/Lincoln eDCTs for 2024.
  28. Like I said I’ve never heard a single hybrid vehicle owner complain about the tranny. I think your concerns are a bit overblown.
