2012 Lincoln MKZ 4dr Sedan

263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD

62000 mi

US $200
This vehicle left the Ford Mexican factory missing some of the brake hardware located at the driver front. Hardware designed to spread the two brake disc pads apart was missing. As a result, one of the four front brake pads had excessive wear to the point that it had to be replaced. Since only all four brake pads can be replaced at once, this job turned into a pre-mature front brake job, including new rotors in the front. (Missed out on maybe another 25,000 miles of brakes on the front.)
