Water in the rear differential can occur due to a faulty seal or gasket, allowing moisture to enter. It can also result from a submerged vehicle or improper maintenance during fluid changes. This contamination can lead to significant damage, including corrosion and reduced lubrication, which may ultimately affect the differential's performance. Regular inspections and maintenance are essential to prevent such issues.

What happens if you let the oil run low in the rear gear on a Lincoln town car?

If by "rear gear" you mean the differential, that joins the driveshaft to the rear axle: If run without sufficient oil it will overheat and eventually be ruined. Ordinarily the rear differential oil seldom needs changing, as unlike engine oil it does not have combustion byproducts constantly contaminating it. If however you drive through floodwaters, water can enter through the vent, which will ruin the differential oil. If you run through flooded water you should have the differential oil changed.
