Lincoln Navigator L (2008) SUV [23/24] Maintenance and modifications

MAINTENANCE AND MODIFICATIONS

The suspension and steering systems on your vehicle have been carefully

designed to provide safe, predictable performance and durable load

carrying capability. Do not make modifications such as adding or

removing parts (such as lift kits or stabilizer bars) or using replacement

parts not equivalent to the original factory equipment because these

modifications can affect the safety of your vehicle.

Do not use “aftermarket lift kits” or other suspension

modifications. “Aftermarket lift kits” could adversely affect the

vehicle’s handling characteristics, which could result in an increased

risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and

death.

Any modifications to a vehicle that raise the center of gravity can make

it easier to induce vehicle rollover. Ford recommends that you take extra

precautions, such as driving at lower speeds, avoiding abrupt steering

changes and allowing for increased stopping distance, for any vehicle

equipped with a high load (for example, roof racks).

Failure to maintain your vehicle properly may void the warranty, increase

your repair cost, reduce vehicle performance and operational capabilities

and adversely affect driver and passenger safety. Frequent inspection of

vehicle chassis and powertrain components is recommended if the

vehicle is subjected to heavy off-road usage. Refer to the “Owner’s

Guide” and “Service Guide” for proper maintenance instructions and

schedules.
