Beautiful piece of junk

2020 Lincoln Navigator Black Label 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

After years of Navigators I became bored and bought a few different Suv's, until the new Navigator was announced. I ordered one immediately! Within the first month I knew something was really off about the car and the way it drove. I took it back to the dealer twice to only be told noting was wrong. Fast forward a year and the transmission totally fails and had to be replaced, only they …

2020 Lincoln Navigator Black Label 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

During the pandemic we bought a Motorhome and wanted to flat tow a vehicle behind it. The Navigator was a great option but I was really concerned about the reliability. 4 months later I have had the BlackLabel in the sho- for more than 15days and there are still several issues. The communication typically takes 24-48 hour from the dealership and more than 30days the BlackLabel …

Decent Vehicle, Terrible Service and Support

2021 Lincoln Navigator L Reserve 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

All the hype of owning a Lincoln and the service that comes with it falls through the cracks the moment you need help. Lincoln offers to pick up your car for service to their nearest dealer. True? No, it is not true (at least in my case and I live in a populated 4 million resident metro). Lincoln stands behind their cars with great service. True? No, it is not true. Called in …

$80000 piece of junk

Mike, 12/30/2020

2020 Lincoln Navigator Reserve 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

Traded an Infinti for a Navigator what a mistake. 3 months in tailgate lift wouldn't work. Had to replace both actuators. Today couldn't unlock the doors with either key fob. 5 months old with less than 10000 miles. For this amount of money that should not be the case. Will never by another.

We have a limited number of reviews for the 2022 Lincoln Navigator, so we've included reviews for other years of the Navigator since its last redesign.

Safety

Our experts like the Navigator models:

Surround-View Camera: Provides a top-down view of the car on the center screen to help you navigate tight spaces.
MyKey: Allows owners to specify speed limits and stereo volume limits for secondary drivers (think: teenagers and valets).
ActiveGlide driving system: On over 100,000 miles of limited-access highways, the Navigator can brake, accelerate and center itself in the lane without the driver needing to keep his or her hands on the wheel.
