One problem related to ball joint has been reported for the 2011 Lincoln MKZ. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2011 Lincoln MKZ based on all problems reported for the 2011 MKZ.
We purchased the vehicle on the test-drive requested that the dealership address the front-end noise. Have taken the vehicle 3 separate times for repair of the front-end noise. After 3rd time at repair by dealer, discovered the 'noise' was the right front strut and ball joint failure. The dealership we purchased vehicle did not consider this a safety issue. You could take the right-front tire and shake from side-to-side with all tires on the ground. We have had to spend over $2000 and have not been able to drive a new car before the 30 tag expired.
