2004 Lincoln LS V8 3.9 V8 from North America
Summary:
LS = Luxury Sport
Faults:
Rear brakes squeak even after replacing the pads and rotors.
Headlights are hazed over and dull.
Passenger heated seats works for a minute, then turns off on it's own.
Steering wheel makes a sound when turning.
General Comments:
This is the LS V8 ultimate package, with the optional THX and nav system. Has rear heated seats and HIDs.
The car is superb, very comfortable, fast and super quiet, only downfall is the fuel economy on the 3.9L V8. On the highway it's very good, about 23 mpg, otherwise I average around 16 mpg.
Very nicely appointed interior with high quality panels and comfy seats. The THX sound system is incredible and has configuration for optimal sound quality based on the # of occupants in the car. Has speed sensitive steering that works great, although the steering wheel does make a noise when turning.
Car looks and drives great and has many improvements on the previous 2000+ models.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

My seat back fell off after 3 years on the road. I have also had a lot of trouble with the transmission.
