NHTSA Complaint #11093240 — 2016 LINCOLN MKZ HYBRID

THE 2016 MKZ HYBRID DOES NOT COME WITH A SPARE TIRE. THIS WAS NOT TOLD TO ME WHEN THE CAR WAS PURCHASED. THE ABSENCE OF A SPARE TIRE PUTS ONE IN DANGER. THIS SHOULD BE WELL DOCUMENTED AT TIME OF PURCHASE. THEY PROVIDE A SPRAY CAN OF JUNK THAT IS USELESS UNLESS YOU HAVE A PIN IN YOUR TIRE. ANY DAMAGE TO THE TIRE AND YOU ARE STRANDED UNTIL YOU CAN GET TO A TIRE OUTLET THAT HAS THE TIRE YOU NEED. IT IS A DISGRACE THAT ON A LUXURY VEHICLE THIS ABSENCE PUTS YOU AT RISK. CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING STRANDED ON OPEN HIGHWAY AT 2 IN THE MORNING. IF TRIPLE AAA COMES YOU NEED TO BE PUT ON A FLATBED BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE A TIRE TO CHANGE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND SERIOUS MATTER THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY.
