Used Lincoln Navigator: the years to buy and the years to skip

Every Lincoln Navigator from 2010 to 2025, across 2 generations: what each year typically sells for (about $13,000 to $62,000), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2010–2018, 2020–2025. Look harder at or skip 2019.

2018–2025 Lincoln Navigator

A redesigned full-size luxury SUV with a lavish cabin, a roomy third row and strong turbo power.

Years to target: 2018, 2020–2025. Look harder at or skip: 2019. It has an average reliability record.

Worth knowing

  • 2019: owner complaints spike (80, mostly the seats and belts).
  • Listen for a rattle at cold start, a known cam phaser issue with this engine, and note any harsh transmission shifts.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Look for the Reserve: it adds a panoramic roof, upgraded audio and more luxurious seating over lower trims; 2022 and later models brought hands-free highway driving and a larger touchscreen.

On the test drive

Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

  • Adaptive cruise control: standard from 2022, optional from 2018.

Worth knowing

  • The V8 through 2014 is very thirsty, and twin-turbo models can develop timing chain wear, so listen for rattles on startup.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Target a 2015 or later model: the update replaced the thirsty V8 with a stronger twin-turbo V6 and added adaptive suspension and a newer touchscreen; L models add extra cargo space.

On the test drive

Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: not offered in this generation.
  • Adaptive cruise control: not offered in this generation.
  • Blind-spot monitoring: not standard in this generation, so check the listing.
