- Date Of Incident: 2022-01-03
- Date Complaint: 2024-09-25
- VIN: 5LM5J6XC2MG
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: I have been reporting an issue for over two years with multiple dealerships regarding a sulphur and other strong exhaust smell. This Sulphur smell is most problematic and occurs most often at least one per day. This issue started off intermittently but is now occurring as increase frequencies. The Lincoln dealerships tell me this is normal. I am not sure what system is exactly failing as no codes are being presented (so says the dealership. This smell is so strong and can be easily smelled in the car but even more once opening the doors or hatchback. I have children that breath this air as well as myself. Often children (my own as well as school friends for which we give rides to) complain about this smell and it is very noxious in nature. This issue has been reported to the dealership MULTIPLE times (Actually reported to two dealerships). Often, I am being told this is "normal" due to gas used. In beginning they would not even log my concern, but this past year I have been submitting online. Always no code so no issue. No other troubleshooting is done. I have even requested additional basic troubleshooting data and not received. This is not a normal smell, as the Lincoln dealership(s) suggest. This smell makes us feel unpleasant. This smell is strong and is hazardous to the health of my family and others. I need Ford to take this issue seriously. Symptoms experienced indicate there is likely a problem with the catalytic converter and they are not addressing.

- Summary: The vehicle began making a low tapping noise in the front passenger side approximately 2 months ago, which has gradually become louder.

More recently the tapping noise has been accompanied by a squeaking noise when the wheel is turned, when driving over bumps, when removing the foot from the brake at a red light, when putting the vehicle into drive after being parked all day, as well as when anyone enters/exits the parked vehicle (leading me to believe it has something to do with the suspension). The front brakes were recently replaced and everything appeared normal when the wheel was removed by mechanic. Shields underneath the vehicle were also checked and are all appropriately tight, not loose anywhere. Exact problem remains unknown at this time, vehicle is scheduled for diagnostics at the dealership in just over a month from now.

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share my experience with my car. It has been a great ride so far, with no issues since the few at delivery. I'm excited to say that I've ordered a new one, as Lincoln is offering a brand new Black Label at a slightly reduced monthly payment. The car is a great combination of luxury, styling and convenience, and at a very reasonable value. Although it's not perfect, it's definitely one of the best in its category. I've had the German equivalents, but they're just too full of tech that is not intuitive, and the dealers are not very nice to their customers. On the other hand, the Black Label concierge service is really nice. Looking forward to my new car and more great experiences!

As someone who has owned several BMWs, including X3 and X5, we decided to give the new Lincoln Aviator a try. And boy, were we impressed! The Aviator's exterior is downright beautiful, and the interior is second to none. Compared to the BMW X5 interior, all I can say about the Lincoln is WOW. The leather is soft and supple, the real wood trim is a nice touch, and the controls are very user-friendly. We opted for the Grand Touring Hybrid, and the power is incredible. With a V6 that boasts 400hp and almost 100hp from the electric motors, you're looking at almost 500hp. Combine that with 630 foot-pounds of torque, and you have a rocket on your hands. Plus, with over 50 mpg, you'll save money on gas in the long run. One feature we love is that we don't have to use premium gas, only regular. Way to go, Lincoln! You really outdid yourself on this one. UPDATE: We purchased our 2021 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring approximately 1-1/2 years ago. Right out of the gate, the check engine light came on after only 1 week. We took it right in to the dealership, and they took care of the issue right away, saying it was just a glitch. Whether that was true or not, we never had this problem again. Secondly, we had a driver's seat that started making a popping noise. Long story short, after the second visit, they found some fasteners that were loose and broken, so they replaced them, and that was the end of the issue. All in all, the Aviator has served us well. Whether we're using the battery, gas, or both, it does really well on MPG, anywhere from 27mpg upward. The exterior styling is fantastic, and the interior is second to none of the other luxury class SUVs. Power-wise, all I can say is get ready for a rocket ride. It can go from 0 to 60mph in less than 6 seconds. WOW! We're true Bimmer fans and have owned several, but this Lincoln stole our hearts.Don't get me wrong, I still love Bimmers, but if this Lincoln continues to shine I just might be staying with a Lincoln. Keep up the great work, Lincoln. We love you!

During a surprise white-out snowstorm on a major highway, the cars in front and behind us spun sideways. To avoid an accident, my husband steered the Aviator down into the ravine between the east and west lanes. After 100 feet, we rode out and back up onto the highway without sliding or spinning out of control. This car has been a lifesaver for our family, with wonderful handling in all types of weather. However, there are some cons to consider, such as restricted seating and leg room, poor gas mileage, and cheap interior materials, including poor quality leather and fake wood. As someone who has owned many expensive vehicles, I am disappointed that Lincoln skimped on these features. Additionally, the front seat backs should be powered, and the heating vent can burn your legs. Despite these drawbacks, the Aviator has been a reliable and safe choice for our family.

It's really great to have a car that's fun to drive and doesn't take up too much space in my garage. I mostly drive on the turnpike and I'm getting an average of 17.5 mpg, which isn't bad at all. It's got that Navigator look without the high fuel costs.
Are you having problems with your Lincoln Aviator?
Jaylon Goyette 2025-09-06

About a year ago, I test drove my Aviator and thought it was amazing. I drove it for only three blocks and decided to buy it. The next day, I picked up my Aviator Reserve and drove off to pick up my three daughters. While on the highway, I looked over at my daughters and knew I had made the right decision. They felt comfortable and safe in the car. However, my happiness was short-lived. Three weeks later, while driving home from my son's house, the entire dash lit up with warning signs and failure signs. Everything changed - our seats were in different settings, the suspension ride was not smooth, and there were failure signs for my braking and AWD. The front end was shimming, and it felt like I was driving with my parking brake on. It was and still is very stressful. This was just the beginning of a year-long torture of being promised that everything would be okay. Lincoln offered me a 2022 Aviator after a year of being patient, but I would have to pay them another $20k. I'm not sure how or why this is happening to me, but I cannot give this vehicle any type of positive review. The attitude of the dealership and the manufacturer is disappointing. Instead of doing better for the consumer, they are taking the attitude of doing less and charging more. It is safe to say that I understand why the Lincoln brand is losing popularity. If only Henry and Wilfred were here to see such a disgrace. Shame on you.

I've driven my Aviator for 14,000 miles and it has been mostly trouble-free. However, I have experienced a few issues. The steering shudders quite badly when making left turns at low speeds on level ground. The dealer has informed me that this is a common issue caused by the power steering sucking air while turning on an incline. Although the problem improved after the first visit to the shop, it returned after a month. Additionally, the DVD player malfunctioned and ate a DVD within the first 3 months. Unfortunately, the parts had to be back-ordered. One downside is that the dealership never has a Lincoln available for use while my car is in the shop. On a positive note, I was able to achieve 19.5 mpg on a 1300 mile trip, averaging 75 MPH.

The car has a beautiful design and a smooth driving experience. However, I have experienced some issues with the navigation screen and radio presets. Additionally, I have had trouble with the phone as a key feature. Unfortunately, my experience with customer service at my local Lincoln dealership has not been satisfactory. Despite trying to contact them through their text-in feature, I have not received a response.

This car is beautiful! However, it has been in the shop more than in our garage. It is a constant different issue, from transmission, faulty computer system, now oil leak, hood never aligned proper, back row seats stopped working ECT.... I want a new car. Update: Got rid of the piece of junk! Best day ever!
Erick Monahan 2025-08-24

Although I have experienced some issues with my 2021 Lincoln Aviator, I am confident that these problems can be resolved. The navigation system has been unreliable, the clock has frozen, and the rain detection feature has not worked properly. Additionally, the car has unexpectedly braked while driving at high speeds, which was concerning. Unfortunately, my experience with Lincoln's customer service was not satisfactory, as I was transferred between representatives and left stranded for several hours before receiving assistance. However, I remain optimistic that these issues can be addressed and resolved in a timely manner.
