Doctorg23 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 We have a huge crack across our windshield from a large rock on the highway. We've been waiting on a windshield since early August. They keep pushing out the delivery date...now October 18. Anyone have any idea what the deal is? Are they not building these vehicles anymore?

Hi DoctorG. You do not mention what model year your Navigator is. If it is a new one, then the issue may be that there are limited numbers of windshields available, especially due to the pandemic, and the priority is to supply them for new vehicle manufacturing. Also, are you waiting on a new windshield from a Lincoln Dealer? A Windshield repair/replacement company? If it is an older Navigator, I have no answer. Hope you get yours soon and good luck.

Doctorg23 Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Hi there, It is for a 2018 Navigator and we ordered through the dealer. I understand the issue of limited supply, but you can’t leave your current customers in the lurch with a smashed windshield...maybe a few weeks, but 2 months??

HofstraJet Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Pre-pandemic it took several weeks for me to get a new windshield for my 18, so unfortunately the delay doesn't seem that unusual given all of the other factors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wisc75 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 We ordered two Months ago and date Keeps pushing. Spider crack across Entire from window. Soon unusable. Apparently there are Some non OEM ones that can be obtained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHB Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Careful about non-OEM ... May void functionality and factory warranty on windshield and Heads-Up-Display and Rain Sensing wiper system and Lane detection/keep system and possibly others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
