I have noticed exhaust fumes in the cabin when driving. I drive both highway and city, but it is worse on the highway. I started feeling tires and foggy headed every time I drove. I tried recycling air and open air both but didn't seem to help. I went to the dealership for oil change and told them about the problem. Service concierge said they had another 2016 Mkx in at that time with the same problem. I was told they couldn't look at my vehicle for over two weeks and wouldn't have a loaner car until then. I told them I was concerned about driving with the problem and was offered two options. . . Leave it there until they could look at it, with no loaner car, or for times sake take it to another dealership. This is unacceptable and a liability in my opinion.
2016 Lincoln Mkx - under hard acceleration, I am getting exhaust fumes and also rotten egg smell coming into the interior with a. C. On and in recirculate mode with windows up. My SUV only has 27,000 miles on it. I should not be getting exhaust fumes of any kind inside of my SUV. This should be investigated because exhaust fumes inside of a SUV are dangerous.
I have had problems with my 2016 Mkx, purchased in June of 2016. The exhaust system has been leaking into the cabin. I actually took the car in for service, but the car dealership could not find an issue. They cleaned underneath the exhaust lines and it has improved. The vehicle is usually in motion, I live in an area with hills usually after climbing up a hill of a city street. I have noticed the smell lingering even after I've been out of the car. I've seen on other sites where other Lincoln owners have complained as well. I'm posting this message as I believe the exhaust system issue for Ford is beyond just the Ford line and also Lincoln.
The vehicle when accelerating lets exhaust and carbon monoxide into car interior. Took the SUV to dealer and has been worked on several times with no fix. Ford motor company field engineer was unable to fine and recommend a repair. Asked Ford to repurchase vehicle but they refused saying its norm for the SUV. They did not give any regulations or anything that would support this as we should not have to breathe gas fumes when traveling down a highway. We were told not to use interior circulation and it would help, not to use air the vehicle when accelerating lets exhaust and carbon monoxide into car interior. Took the SUV to dealer and has been worked on several times with no fix. Ford motor company field engineer was unable to fine and recommend a repair. Asked Ford to repurchase vehicle but they refused saying its norm for the SUV. They did not give any regulations or anything that would support this other than them just making a statement hoping we go away, we should not have to breathe gas fumes when traveling down a highway. We were told not to use interior circulation and it would help, not to use air conditioner on max. The cabin on car fills with the gas fumes and makes us tired and fatigue when driving for extended period of time. We purchase a luxury SUV as Ford would have you to believe but it actually more like a gas chamber having to breath this seems a little too much. I hope the NHTSA can get Ford to acknowledge they have a problem and make them take it seriously and get rid of what is causing the problem.
