Safety
Like most new models, the MKS comes standard with a number of valuable safety features, including front side-impact airbags as well as side curtain airbags for both rows. Stability control, antilock brakes and traction control are also standard.
As of this writing, the MKS has not been crash tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety or the federal government.
