Awful entertainment system

I never write reviews but don’t want anyone to make the same mistake that I did by buying the Lincoln entertainment system. This is the worst entertainment system i’ve Ever seen in a car. The system is completely separate from the car itself (like sticking 2 iPads on the back of the seats) and can not be controlled from the front easily. It also is not integrated with the car sound system (my kids are too little to wear headphones) so that I can not have something play on the entertainment system through the speakers & have it switch to a phone call on Bluetooth because rather than having the entertainment system wired to the sound system, it’s just a Bluetooth connection for the sound with the entertainment system. So basically i need to choose between screaming kids or taking a phone call safely in my car. Would have expected better from Lincoln. Nobody in Lincoln or the dealership wants to take responsibility for this awful system they sold me.

Lincoln Luxury

2018 Lincoln Navigator Premiere 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

I purchased the Premier/base model with two wheel drive. I wanted all the luxury without the high price of the other models. It comes standard with navigation, blind spot monitoring, front and back parking sensors. I didn't want a sunroof or the technology package. I mainly wanted the 20 inch wheels which provide a smooth ride without needing adaptive suspension that comes with the 22 inch wheels. You also fixed steps instead of automatic steps on the side. Once you are inside the interior and seating are the same as select and reserve models. I got a great deal for 68,900 so my depreciation wont be as great as the higher end models. I have averaged 21mpg over the first 4000 miles.

Almost Perfect

What's not to love about the new Navigator. I'm coming out of a Denali, and there's simply no comparison. Much better interior space, and much higher trim level then Denali or Escalade. I appreciate the amount of power available as well as the fuel economy. For the overall big SUV luxury category this is the new industry leader. There is only one detraction - the rear Air Conditioning. The AC simply can't keep the second row cool, and the third row doesn't have a prayer. I took my Navigator in for service. The company is aware of the issue, but as of yet - does not have a solution. If you live in a warm climate and/or expect to have many rear passengers - please be ware. Other then that, this Navigator is a joy to drive, allowing all to arrive in comfort and style!

Have owned for a year now... here’s the take on it

I traded my 2015 Cadillac Escalade for the Navigator L. After one year, here are the facts... Hate and I mean hate the rear seat entertainment system - DO NOT opt for it - it was a $2000 con (it can’t be controlled from the front so toddlers can’t use it) - Lincoln just shrugged its shoulders. After a year, mine still has the plastic on the screens - useless. Love the seats and the ride compared to the Escalade. Hate the piano key shift - thought it was cool until doing 3 point turns. Getting any parts for the car is a nightmare right now (COVID). Safety features like the backup cameras are much better on the Escalade (camera does not auto switch to front camera when put in drive after backing up - the Escalade does this automatically). If Cadillac upgrades their seats and reliability, I will be returning my business to them.

I had to get a larger car because of a growing family. Owned the Gl450 which is a great suv. Had some electrical issues but that seems to come with the territory of a Benz. The new navigator is impressive. Looks are great. Drives like a much smaller suv. Interior is very upscale and seats super comfortable. We love it as a family. Roomy and great ride. It’s only been 2 weeks so no answer in reliability. But they pickup car at home and give a loaner so it’s a low stress issue.
