  1. But are you getting the actual sat stations?
  2. :shades: If the iPod is plugged into the USB port it is also charging. My iPod touch does not keep playing, it picks up where I left off when I get back in the car. However, my 160 gb ipod does not play through th eUSB por, but it does charge. Hope that helps. :shades:
  3. The Edge was a bit smaller on the inside. The new model ride was no different to me... but by the time I added all the bells to the Edge, it made more sense to get the MKX. I have seen the online 2011 MKX and wish I could have held out for that one, but there are no incentives on the 2011 yet and they were giving almost $5000 to get the 2010... I pick it up today, hopefully... or tomorrow. Thanks for getting back to me.
  4. I am curently waiting for my MKX to be delivered from another dealership... bought it last week on Friday and it is still not here. I asked the same question to the dealer and they were willing to have it brought on a flatbed if I paid for it. I even offered to go there and get it, but they wouldn't tell me where they were getting it from. I believed I have bought my last car from them... wasn't pleased with the way the finance guy tried to talk down to me when I questioned about the approx 150 miles they were adding to it... all I wanted to know is if they would readjust the milage on the form they forced me to sign that said that was the milage on it... Very rude man. Good luck, would be interested in knowing how many miles are actully on it when you get it. I'll let you know mine as well. Peace
  5. I have a 2007 MKX and the lease is almost up... can you tell me if you noticed a difference in driving your aunts MKX and your Edge? Thanks.
  6. Well tell them when they call me for my daily update... but don't you think that is something that they should be aware of, and should have checked already? Again, thanks for the tip, will pass it on.
  7. Yes, Ohio has a lemon law... I am in the process of researching it now... I do not want to hire an atty. so I am hoping that they will try to get this situation resolved as soon as possible.
  8. Me again... So, I picked my car up on Wednesday morning 4/9/08 and to my surprise, it seemed to be going great. Was told that it was the PCM again, and that they had to manually update this on, and that I should be good for the next 7 years. Pulled it out of the lot, on my way to work and noticed a crack in the windshield that wasn't there when I dropped it off. Phoned the dealer and they said that they would replace it "no problem". So I thought great, no problem. Sunday, 4/13/08, on my way home from church with my God children in the car, it starts all over again... first the air bag light, then the skid light, then it looses acceleration, then the entire dashboard lights up again. I begin to pray because I am on the highway on my way to drop off these kids. I leave the car running as I run one in the house, then drop the other one off, and head home. The lights go off, I think I'm ok, and I'll call the dealer again tomorrow. Not even 10 minutes later it starts again, good thing I am almost home, (forget grocery shopping today). I pull into a parking space, turn the car off, then decide maybe I should move to a space where they will be able to access it should they need to tow it, because now, I don't feel comfortable driving it anymore... turn the key... nothing... turn the key again... again, nothing. So I get out, go in the house and call the Ford Customer Service Line, which the lady at the dealer gave me the number for because she knew I would have this problem again, and I should call to start a paper trail. I didn't think anything of it after I picked the car up. Anyway, they were closed. I called first thing this morning 8:00 am. After waiting 15 minutes for someone to answer the phone, I was not talking to a rep who I'll call John. After giving him all of my information, then telling him the history of the problem, he places me on hold for 20 minutes. John returns and said that he spoke with the dealership that serviced my car and they confirmed my "story". My story... now I'm a bit upset... I think up until now, I've handled this whole thing quite well... John then asks "so, what do you want us to do?" HELLO... FIX MY CAR... or give me a new one. I am tire of this... he places me on hold again... 10 minutes later, John is back on the line and tells me, someone will research my claim, and be in touch with me in 3-5 days. AAHHHH.... I call the dealership and tell them that I am on my way up there to bring this car... I am cleaning it out, and dropping it off. She tells me that the replacement windshield just arrived, but they don't have a rental, and won't have one until Wednesday... I informed her of my weekend car haps, and she says okay... bring it in. Will let you all know what happens next. (I wish I didn't like the MKX so much)... dang :stats: :stats: .
  9. I feel ya... I was the first one to buy an MKX from the dealership here Mayfield, Ohio (April 6, 2007)... Black on Black, a think of beauty... heads would turn, windows would roll down, "what's that" they'd say... "can I just look inside", they'd say... even the hand prints and the forehead prints on the window didn't bother me... now... everywhere you turn, look, there's one like yours, a red one, a white one, a cream one... an Edge, another Edge... But it is still a cool looking car, can't wait to detail it for the summer! Even with the problems that I've had with the computer system... I still love my Stankin' Lincoln!

  11. Well, it's been a year since I purchased my Lincoln MKX and for the most part I've been quiet content with it... that is, until now. I am almost at the point where I am ready to return it to the dealer, and count my losses. I am driving down the street, when all of a sudden, the airbag light comes on, the car looses excelleration, then all of the dash lights come on. I call the dealer and make an appointment to bring it into the shop for the next morning. I pull into the restaurant to pick up lunch, get back in my car, and nothing happens, it will not crank, wont turn over, wont even make a noise. I call the dealer back (not even 10 minutes from the first call) and tell them that "in addition to all the lights being on on the dashboard, it will not start". They give me the number to roadside assistence, which was an ordeal in and of itself to deal with, but I will tell that story on another day. Almost 2 hours later, I arrive at the dealership, (roadside took 1hr 40 min) the car cranks, and no lights. They keep it, give me an older modle Ford Taurus and tell me that I can pick my MKX up tomorrow. I receive a phone call on the next day, Wednesday, we can't start your car... can you bring the spare key. I leave work again, go home, get the key, take it to the dealer and go back to work. Thursday, we are replacing the PCM on your car, it will take two days to get the part, you will have your car on Tuesday at the latest. Keep the Ford Taurus for the weekend, enjoy! Now it's Tuesday, we still can's start your car, we are ordering another PCM. To make this long story a bit shorter... Friday, you can come pick up your car. Yippie... Sunday, leaving church, "girl, you don't have any tail lights" Monday, lights work, not problem, Tuesday, no lights on the left side of the car. Wed., I call... Friday, I take the car to the dealer, on the way, it looses excelleration, again, the lights come on, again... I get there, leave the car running so they can see the lights... 3 hours later, they are taking me to a rental car location to pickup a vehicle for the weekend... I get a call today, we've replaced the PCM, again... you can pick your car up tomorrow. I've missed work, school, and am loosing patience. Has anyone else had similar problems with their MKX or EDGE?
