2007 Lincoln MKZ Wheels Problems

“2007 Lincoln MKZ v6. The wheel/rims are garbage. They are falling apart, cracks in the metal, finish peeling, around the tire pieces of the rim has fallen off. I can't believe Lincoln would use such junk. I have to keep checking the air pressure because the wheels/rims are so torn up. I just bought the car two weeks ago. Lincoln needs to have a recall on these wheels before someone gets killed because of them falling apart. The welds are breaking apart. These wheels/rims are dangerous.”

“My airbag light stays on constantly passenger side. This may cause injury if in accident I've replaces several tires and recently have new ones and tire pressure goes completely flat on 2 back tires and constantly putting air in front tires.. I returned it to service station that installed tires and he said the rims are so corroded that's why I'm losing air in tires. These need replaced and are costly. I feel I may have a blowout while driving if I don't check these daily.”

“I am having issues with low tires. They are constantly going low/flat. About 6 month ago I had one tire come completely off my rim. From what I am told by the dealership, the rims have to be shaved down and then re sealed. I just bought new tires less then a year ago and already in need of new ones because the tread is worn out for having inconsistant air in them with them continually going low! It's been going on for the last 3 years but more frequently within the last 12 months.”

“I had my 2007 Lincoln MKZ since 2013 and I always had problems with my factory wheels that I brought from a dealership which wasn't even on the carfax when I bought nor the salesman did not say anything about the rims having a problem poking whole in all 4 tires. Every 5 days, every 5 days I have to go pump my tires up so they will not bust. I first noticed this problem when I had the zepher, same make. I was out with who is my wife now, front driver side rim shredded my tire. We could have been killed or seriously injured. And im still today still having this same !!frustrating problem!! …”

“The vehicle start experiencing a roar coming from the front end. Took vehicle to dealer who advised that tires were our of balance and also needed an alignment. The alignment was done and wheels balanced. Did not solve problem. Took back to dealer who stated would need a new set of tires to correct situation. Advised dealer that tires were only 13 months old that I would take to tire store where tires were purchased. Tire dealer agreed to adjust tires and put a new set of four tires and balanced again. Noise still existed and started to get worse. …”
