The eye-catching elegance of a Lincoln depends largely on the sophisticated color palette and glossy appeal of its paintwork. If you wish to preserve your luxury car's good looks, invest in paint protection with the help of your Lincoln dealership. There are a few options for this. 4 Ways To Preserve Your Lincoln's Paint With Professional Care Ceramic Coating One of the most effective ways to protect automobile paintwork is with ceramic coating, a long-lasting chemical polymer that adds a hydrophobic layer of shielding over the clear coat. The chemical bonding nature of ceramic coating means it doesn't break down under ordinary weather conditions, including UV rays from sunlight. It's very long-lasting; you can apply either permanent or semi-permanent versions of ceramic coating. This popular solution also gives the paintwork an additional visual depth and gleam. more Paint Sealant Another long-term solution is paint sealant, a synthetic polymer-based compound that adheres firmly onto the paint and protects against UV rays, heat, rain, and minor scratches. Sealants add a mirror-like sheen that looks fantastic. Unlike ceramic coating, sealants can typically be used in combination with wax. There are all kinds of different paint sealants with differing qualities. Ask our technicians for recommendations for your Lincoln. Premium Paste Wax Unless you've applied ceramic coating, you should wax your car two or three times a year. High-quality wax protects the clear coat and adds an alluring shine. Some wax can even repair minor scratches and blemishes. It's best to use superior paste wax on your Lincoln, rather than liquid spray forms of wax. Protection Film A very high level of protection is achieved with the application of protective thermoplastic urethane to portions of the car's paneling. This remarkably durable, flexible layer of plastic film is extremely resistant to anything that would normally leave a scratch or mark. Most impressively of all, thermoplastic urethane can heal itself over time if it does become marred by a scratch or swirl. Many drivers use protection film only on the parts of their car that are most susceptible to wear and tear. If you find yourself frequently driving along dusty, stony roads or salty surfaces during winter, you might want to consider this option. Even though it's a layer of plastic film, thermoplastic urethane blends perfectly with and even enhances the aesthetics of the car when professionally applied. Ask for Paint Protection at Your Local Lincoln Dealership Given the variety of options for preserving the lustrous sheen of your Lincoln's paintwork, it's a good idea to consult with our technicians. We can offer guidance on what might work best for your particular model and driving habits.

Tucked away under your car, the exhaust pipes are susceptible to damage from potholes and unnoticed corrosion. However, your exhaust system is vital for engine health and overall vehicle performance. Here are six key reasons to schedule regular exhaust maintenance at your Lincoln dealership. 6 Benefits of Having Your Lincoln's Exhaust System Inspected at the Dealer Optimal Engine Performance For your engine to operate at its best, fumes must flow easily out of the car via the exhaust pipes. If a growing problem clogs your exhaust, back pressure rapidly builds, and the engine cannot draw in as much fresh oxygen, which leads to a fall in power output. You'll find your car's acceleration becoming increasingly sluggish. Routine inspections allow the exhaust to be cleaned and protected against corrosion. Small issues can be identified and repaired early, which means less chance of clogging and a stronger, healthier engine. more Improved Gas Mileage Exhaust issues also reduce fuel efficiency. If the outflow of exhaust fumes becomes even slightly restricted, the fuel-air mixture inside the engine's cylinders is thrown out of balance, which hinders the combustion process. This means for each ounce of fuel injected, less power is produced; your gas mileage has fallen. Inspections help to prevent this. Money Saved on Repairs An unbalanced mixture of fuel and air due to a clogged exhaust often leads to misfiring spark plugs. Your engine will cough and shudder as it struggles to generate power, and the fouled spark plugs could soon cause further damage in the car that requires expensive repairs. Regular inspections not only prevent misfiring but also nip burgeoning exhaust problems in the bud. It's especially important to protect your catalytic converter from harm, as replacing a ruined cat is never cheap. Noise Reduction and Comfort You might be surprised by how loud a car's engine becomes without healthy exhaust pipes and a muffler. If you neglect these components, holes and cracks could appear, which ruin the pipes' noise-reducing qualities. As a result, your drives will become far less peaceful. Cleaner Breathing Air The catalytic converter prevents the engine's most toxic fumes from entering your car and the environment. If your cat and surrounding pipes aren't inspected regularly, a fault could gradually develop that eventually allows noxious, foul-smelling fumes to enter your cabin. This would be hazardous for your health. Effortless Emission Tests It's wise to have your exhaust system checked before an emission test. Our technicians can get everything in good working order and ensure your car passes the test with flying colors. Book Exhaust Maintenance With the Specialists at Our Lincoln Dealership Treat your luxurious Lincoln to the expertise of factory-trained Lincoln specialists at our dealership. We have in-depth knowledge of every aspect of your model's exhaust system and can service it efficiently and effectively. Visit Koons Lincoln of Bethesda in Bethesda, MD.

Trading in your old vehicle, as opposed to keeping it, is very beneficial. As your Lincoln dealership, we want to tell you about some of the many trade-in benefits you'll receive when you bring your old car to us. 3 Trade-In Benefits Available at Your Lincoln Dealership It's Hassle-Free Trading in your old vehicle is easy and hassle-free. The first step is to find out your old car's value, and you do this online from the comfort of your home. The Trade Appraisal tab on our website allows you to submit your vehicle details, and we'll contact you with its trade value. If you're satisfied, bring your old car to us. We'll confirm the valuation and give you a credit for its value to apply against your new Lincoln. If you wanted to sell your old car and use the money toward your new Lincoln, it could be a potential headache. You'd need to make sure your vehicle has all its services up to date, and any issues like scratches will need repair to get the best price possible. You then need to advertise and have the inconvenience of strangers asking countless questions and wanting to test drive it to decide if they want to buy it. more You Save Money As a vehicle gets older, more complex systems need repair or replacement, and this can add up. Trading in your old car frees you from these costs, and your new Lincoln will require very little maintenance for several years. In addition, it's covered by warranty, so in the unlikely event of an issue, any repairs will be performed at no charge. Some drivers are sentimental about their old car and don't want to part with it. If you decide to keep our old vehicle, you will have to budget for its repair costs. You will also need to pay for its insurance and registration. It's also important to remember that depreciation lowers a vehicle's value, so the longer you keep it, the more difficult it will be to sell it if you change your mind, and the less you'll receive. You Save Tax Everyone wants to pay less tax, and trading in your old car helps you to do just that. In Maryland, the value of a trade is deducted from the price of your new vehicle, and you only pay tax on the difference. Since the tax is 6%, if you have a high trade value, you can save a lot of money. If you decided to sell your old car, you would have to pay the 6% tax on the money you make from selling it, and you would also pay 6% tax on your new Lincoln. That's a lot of tax.

You'll also save money and hassle by avoiding serious vehicle malfunctions. 5 Benefits of Lincoln Dealer-Certified Multi-Point Inspections Superior Performance The peak condition that your Lincoln now enjoys can only be diminished by wear, tear, and undiscovered vehicle issues.

There's nothing more annoying than a chip in your windshield which is constantly in your field of vision. Scheduling a windshield repair at your local Lincoln dealership ensures that any cracks are dealt with promptly before they have the chance to worsen. Four Reasons to Trust Your Lincoln Dealership for Glass and Windshield Repairs 1: Genuine OEM Glass Every part of your Lincoln is precision engineered with high-quality components, and your windshield is no different. Whether you are having a small repair or a complete replacement, you need to have confidence that the integrity of the glass has been preserved. Even a minor reduction in thickness or variation in the curvature could negatively affect the end result. Your dealership won't try to use low-quality, substitute glass. Instead, you can have confidence that your Lincoln will be repaired using the same OEM glass that's used by the original manufacturer. This ensures you benefit from the same excellent acoustic insulation and optical clarity, with no reduction in associated functions. more 2: Warranty Coverage All the repairs that your dealership carries out are typically backed by an industry-standard warranty. This means you have peace of mind, knowing that the repairs are covered, should anything go wrong. If your Lincoln is still within the manufacturer's warranty, you may void your coverage by using non-authorized parties for any repairs. Going to your dealership for all repairs ensures that you receive maximum protection at all times. 3: Full System Recalibration Your Lincoln has a myriad of sophisticated systems that are all connected. This means when you replace one part, it's essential to consider what the impact might be on other functions and features. Your Lincoln may have a variety of driver assistance features that rely on forward-facing cameras that are mounted behind the windshield. Changing the glass without recalibrating the system could mean that these driver assistance functions no longer work properly. At your dealership, technicians have the necessary expertise to carry out the full range of work. This includes not only replacing the glass, but also recalibrating the system to ensure all connected features continue to work as they should. As these driver assistance systems help to improve your car's safety, the importance of professional recalibration cannot be overstated. 4: Trusted Lincoln Standards If you've ever visited the dealership before, you'll appreciate just how high the standards are. This includes the customer service you receive as well as the knowledge of the certified technicians. No one knows your Lincoln better than the highly trained technicians, and they will pay meticulous attention to every tiny detail. Once you've become accustomed to the high standards of Lincoln service, anywhere else will just seem second best. If you have a problem with your windshield, we can help.

The 2025 Lincoln Navigator is a luxury SUV that truly stands out from others in the market. To learn more, your Lincoln dealership in Bethesda offers this competitor comparison. A 2025 Lincoln Navigator Competitor Comparison from Your Lincoln Dealership in Bethesda Space The first way that the Lincoln Navigator stands out is the amount of space that you get. The Lincoln Navigator comes with standard seating for seven; compare that with the Range Rover, which only gives you seating for five! You also get more space in every respect: 65.1 inches of shoulder room in the second row versus just 59.1 in the Range Rover and 58.1 in the BMW X7, for instance. Cargo volume behind the last seat is 22.9 cubic feet in the Lincoln and just 8.8 in the Range Rover and 12.8 in the BMW. more Power and Efficiency With the Lincoln, you get an EPA estimated 16 mpg in the city and 22 mpg on the highway, which puts it at the top of the class for similarly sized, powerful SUVs. Contrast this with the Cadillac Escalade, which only gets 11 and 19 mpg respectively, or the INFINITI QX80, which gets 16 in the city but only 19 on the highway. And with the Lincoln's large fuel tank (23.6 gallons vs. 21.9 in the BMW, for instance), you'll go further before fill-ups for more than one reason. There's plenty of power, too. The Lincoln comes with 440 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque, while the Cadillac Escalade gets you just 420 hp and only 460 lb-ft of torque. That naturally translates into great towing power. The Navigator can tow up to 8,700 pounds when properly equipped. With the Escalade, the max is 7,900, and the Range Rover can manage only 8,200. Tech No modern luxury vehicle is complete without the latest in safety and driver assistance tech. Lincoln delivers here in spades. You get active lane control, blind spot monitors, front and rear parking sensors, a surround view camera system, forward and reverse emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and an adaptive cruise control system standard. Every Lincoln Navigator also comes with four years of BlueCruise, which lets you take your hands off the wheel and even does hands-free lane changes on thousands of miles of equipped highways across the US and Canada. Many of these features are available on other luxury SUVs, but Lincoln delivers the most standard in the base trim. For example, with INFINITI, you'll have to upgrade to ProPilot Assist 2.1 if you want the ability to do any hands-free driving. To learn more and see the Navigator for yourself, visit us at Koons Lincoln of Bethesda, MD today. Image Via

Even the finest suspension requires regular maintenance to keep your daily drives safe, smooth, and stable. Let's look into the many benefits of scheduling routine suspension checks. For the ultimate convenience, you can contact your local Lincoln dealership to order mobile suspension maintenance; bring the pros right to your driveway. 8 Reasons Your Lincoln Needs Regular Dealership Suspension Maintenance Smooth, Quiet Driving Any Lincoln driver knows how blissfully peaceful the interiors of these all-American luxury cars are, no matter what road conditions your wheels pass over. Exceptional suspension is responsible for such smooth, quiet driving. But if you neglect your shocks and struts, vibrations and road noise will slowly increase. more Precise Steering and Handling Your Lincoln responds precisely and reliably to a featherlight touch on the steering wheel. The finely tuned suspension allows for this superb degree of control, and routine suspension servicing will keep it that way. Safety When Cornering When cornering at speed, any car will sway without a good suspension. Worn-out suspension parts put you at risk of tipping over or skidding as you corner, especially on rainy days. Stronger Tire Traction Never forget that the suspension holds the wheels and tires firmly in place. Routine suspension servicing involves checking the alignment of your tires to ensure they're exactly parallel and wearing evenly. Reduced Repair Costs Many other car parts are directly connected to the suspension. If your shocks, struts, springs, and sway bars deteriorate, these closely connected components will endure more strain and wear down faster, too. Enhanced Vehicle Longevity Preventative maintenance is the secret sauce for a long-lived vehicle. To preserve your car for as long as possible, hard-working car parts like the suspension, in particular, should be looked after with routine maintenance. Improved Resale Value Any potential future buyer will be happy to see that your suspension is in great shape. For this reason, regular suspension checks boost the value of your investment. Better Fuel Efficiency With a healthy, properly aligned, and tuned suspension, your car will drive more efficiently with less road drag. This makes for improved gas mileage and less money spent on fuel each month.

Let's hope a punctured tire, drained battery, or overheating engine never leaves you stranded somewhere remote and unfamiliar. However, it's wise to get an emergency roadside kit from your local Lincoln dealership, just in case. 4 Reasons Your Lincoln's Emergency Roadside Kit Should Be Dealer-Recommended Reliable Equipment That Works A good emergency kit has certain items like jumper cables, road flares, and seatbelt cutters that could be vital for your safety and escape from a sticky situation. It's essential that this equipment be of the highest quality and fully functional. If your kit was put together by a subpar generic brand, you'll never feel full confidence in the quality of each tool. But everything in a dealer-recommended Lincoln kit will be certain to work as it should because Lincoln has staked its sterling reputation on these kits. more Durable, Long-Lasting Products An emergency car kit might sit forgotten in the trunk or behind a seat for many months, sometimes even years. The multi-purpose tool, survival wraps, and duct tape must be designed to last a very long time without going bad, corroding, or weakening. This kind of durability is difficult to find and know for sure without the recommendation of a trusted expert and automotive brand, such as Lincoln. Everything Lincoln creates or associates with is built to stand the test of both time and urgent need. Full Range of Necessary Items A good emergency car kit must be extremely well planned by experts who understand the most practical tools and equipment required. You wouldn't want to find out in a difficult moment that a reflective safety vest or warning triangle was left out. This latter item alerts other drivers at night that your vehicle is stuck beside the road. Lincoln-recommended emergency kits have everything you could need for almost any unexpected situation in all kinds of weather conditions. Along with the already mentioned items, you'll have a rain poncho, a survival blanket, gloves, zip ties, and more. Fire-Retardant Lincoln Case Lincoln's emergency kit comes in an elegant, soft-carry case with the Lincoln logo. This case is tough and fire-retardant, just in case there was an accident that involved fire.

Regularly cleaning the inside of your vehicle is just as important for your Lincoln as regularly washing the exterior. As your Lincoln dealership, we want to tell you the easy steps to good interior care. From Your Lincoln Dealership: 6 Interior Care Steps To Keep Your Lincoln in Prime Condition Remove The Trash No matter how hard you try, unwanted items will gradually accumulate in your vehicle. Dog toys, that missing baseball mitt, used styrofoam cups, and other assorted items are just some of the things you'll find when you start to clean your Lincoln's interior. Dump the junk items, put the items you're keeping in their correct places, and you're ready for the next step. more Clean The Mats Floor mats trap dust and dirt, so cleaning them is a top priority. If you have rubber mats, they can be hosed down and then put in the sunlight to dry. If you have carpet mats, use a high-quality carpet cleaner and a soft cloth to clean them, then hang them out to air dry. Clean The Windshield The inside of the windshield gets dirty just like the outside, but it's as easy to see. Use a microfiber cloth and window cleaner to make the windshield shine again. Use a gentle circular motion to clean the glass, leaving it clean and streak-free. Dusting No one enjoys dusting, but it must be done. Dust inevitably builds up on everything, leaving the cabin smelling musty and potentially triggering allergies. Once again, a clean microfiber cloth is the best cleaning tool. It can't scratch anything, and the fibers trap dirt, which makes dusting much easier. Dust from the dashboard downward, so any dust or dirt falls on the floor for later removal. When dusting, pay particular attention to cupholders, side door panels, and any recessed areas. These are all places that accumulate dust. Sanitize When you've finished dusting, it's time to sanitize the interior and remove any bacteria. Sanitizing wipes are available in many sizes and scents, so pick the ones you like and gently wipe all interior surfaces. Pay particular attention to areas that are regularly touched, like the steering wheel, gear shift, and any buttons or controls. Clean the infotainment screens and any other digital equipment with computer cleaning wipes. These wipes are specially designed to clean sensitive equipment and can't scratch anything in the process. Vacuum Vacuuming the interior is the final step in removing any dust left behind. Vacuum cleaners have numerous accessories that allow you to reach anywhere, including between the seats, under the seats, and many other hard-to-reach areas. Once you've finished, it's time to congratulate yourself on a job well done. If you'd like more advice on cleaning your Lincoln, contact us today at Koons Lincoln of Bethesda in Silver Spring, MD.
