2012 Lincoln MKX

Engine not specified

77500 mi After checking the car for the overheating issue the Ford dealer concluded that the car just needed fluids which was true due to the overheating but the dealer did not let the car sit and idle for several minutes to see if it sill had a problem so I took the car and was back within a week because it overheated again. Dealer then replaced cooling fan but after driving a short period of time I noticed the replacement fan that the dealer put in makes a lot of noise and when the car is idling or in very slow traffic for more than several minutes the ac just blows hot air but so far it has not boiled over again. I am bringing the car to a different dealer to and hopefully they will be more through. BTW I already added ac refrigerant so that is good.

Excessive cooling fan noise and when stopped in traffic in high summer temps ac fails to keep car cool. Fan is still excessively loud and ac does not cool when it's hot outside and car is in standstill traffic.
