2020 Lincoln MKZ Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Lincoln's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lincoln MKZ? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your MKZ’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my MKZ transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2020 MKZ’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Lincoln, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Lincoln MKZ transmission fluid leak? Yes. Lincoln MKZ transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
