Noticed white smoke as I was driving down highway. Slowly drove back home and towed to dealer. Trans fluid leak. Dealer required new trans replacement $9500, luckily I had certified pre owned warranty. How does a trans go out before 100k? Was a huge hassle and disappointment in the Ford/Lincoln product as they have been doing a good job recently. Dealer told me there was a manufacturing issue in one of the parts in the trans on the 2013 model and problem was addressed for later models.
Be careful when you purchase the 2013, make sure you have warranty. I also had electrical problems, wiring harness that connects to plugin outlets in rear and steering wheel electric issues. Now the car is in for an oil leak near the rear main seal. Tread carefully with this vehicle.
