What is the wading depth of the Lincoln Navigator?
1 Answers
Lincoln Navigator's wading depth is approximately 50-60cm. Generally speaking, the highest point of the fuel tank is located at the waistline of the vehicle, and the requirement for water level height is that it must not submerge the tires. Once the water level exceeds the tires, it indicates that it is not suitable to start the vehicle or continue driving. If the water level is higher than the vehicle's wading depth, the vehicle cannot pass through, and insisting on doing so may lead to issues such as engine stalling or loss of steering control. Below are precautions for driving through water: 1. Engage low gear and proceed slowly: Although the water surface may appear calm without waves, the underwater environment is unknown. Driving through water creates waves that may splash into the air intake, damaging the vehicle. 2. Do not attempt to restart the engine: If the engine stalls while wading through water, do not try to restart it. Water may flow back into the engine through the exhaust pipe, causing stalling or even engine damage. It's best to call for a tow truck. 3. Never lift off the throttle: Because lifting off the throttle creates strong suction in the exhaust system, which can draw water back into the engine. 4. If the vehicle takes in water: First, call the insurance company to file a report. Make sure to report the incident within 24 hours, follow the insurance company's procedures, and contact a repair service as soon as possible.
