Chris109 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Does anyone know what tires came with the 2017 Mkzh? I ended up buying a '17 hybrid (now I have 2 Zh's. Whoopee!) What is on the '17 is Michelin Primacy MXM4. As an aside, the TPMS sensor for the right front is faulty. It does not read a pressure. The dealer I bought it from, not a Lincoln dealer, said that it is warranty work. My Lincoln dealer said that it is under warranty if they were original tires. How do I know if they are original? I do recall when I spoke to the original owner (the dealer I bought it from was none too happy about me speaking to the owner, but, then, it wasn't my fault they left the registration in the car), she told me she did hit a curb. There is scuffing on the wheel. So, I'm assuming that is what damaged the sensor. And now I'm thinking if they should have sold me the car if the sensor wasn't working. Then, again, I bought the car for $25,500 with 27k on it. So, all in all, still a great deal to make me go away and not bother the original owner again.

The 2017 MKZ Hybrid has two available wheels, the base 18" and optional 19" wheel. According to The Tire Rack database, they both came equipped with Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires. Just an observation: If the valve stem/sensor was damaged due to hitting something, it is not covered under warranty. Doesn't hurt to try and have it repaired under warranty, just don't mention the damage and be prepared in case it is noticed and denied. Additionally, if it is not covered under the Lincoln Warranty, the Dealer you purchased the car from should repair it, unless you purchased the car "as-is" (unusual for retail dealers). Keep us updated and good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris109 Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 My regular dealer looked at it. One can tell from looking at the stem that it is not original equipment. Either it is an aftermarket sensor or there isn't one in there and is only just a stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
