AT THIS TIME THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT RESPOND TO EITHER FORWARD OR REVERSE,THERE WAS NO THROTTLE RESPONSE AND THE ENGINE WAS AT LOW IDLE WITH 0 OIL PRESSURE REGISTERING. THE WRENCH INDICATOR WAS LIGHTED ON THE DASH. OWNERS MANUAL INDICATED THE VEHICLE WAS IN " LIMP MODE ". I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND A SHORT TIME LATER RESTARTED THE CAR WITH ALL SYSTEMS OPERATING NORMAL WITH THE WRENCH INDICATOR NO LONGER LIGHTED. SUBSEQUENTLY THE CAR WAS DRIVEN WITHOUT FURTHER MALFUNCTION TO THE SELLING DEALER ABOUT 400 MILES AWAY. THE SERVICE MANAGER SIMPLY STATED THE CODES WOULD BE CHECKED AND THE APPROPRIATE INDICATED REPAIR MADE WITH NO FURTHER CONCERN FOR THE OBVIOUS LIFE SAFETY EVENT WHICH EASILY COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A TRAGIC FATAL ACCIDENT IF OTHER VEHICLES WERE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY.DIAGNOSTICS FOUND DTC P0975.

AFTER THE VEHICLE HIT 5,000 MILES, WE STARTED NOTICING A DECREASE IN OUR FUEL EFFICIENCY. AROUND THAT SAME TIME IS WHEN WE ALSO BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OUR TRANSMISSION. WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, BETWEEN 30 MPH AND 40 MPH, THE RPMS OSCILLATE UP TO +/- 250 RPMS. BETWEEN THOSE SPEEDS, THE ENGINE IS CONSTANTLY REVVING UP AND DOWN WHILE DRIVING. WE HAVE HAD OUR VEHICLE SERVICED BY FORD ON SIX DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, THE PROBLEM WAS RECORDED AND DOCUMENTED ON THEIR COMPUTER SYSTEMS, BUT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. WE CURRENTLY HAVE AROUND 11,000 MILES ON OUR VEHICLE, AND NO RESOLVE FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON 95 WHEN WE HEARD A THUD-TYPE NOISE. WE THOUGHT WE HAD A FLAT TIRE, BUT THEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. WE WERE ABLE TO GET OFF AT THE EXIT THAT WAS IMMEDIATELY UPON US AND SAFELY PULL OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WE DID NOT HAVE ANY FLAT TIRES. THE VEHICLE WOULD STILL TURN ON AND RUN (SO WE KNEW IT WASN'T THE ALTERNATOR), BUT IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. THE FORD DEALERSHIP INFORMED US IT WAS THE MEXTRONICS ELECTRONIC PORTION OF THE SHIFT MECHANISM AND VALVE BODY IN THE TRANSMISSION. THEY SAID THAT THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM COULD NOT HAVE BEEN PREVENTED AND IT DOES NOT HAPPEN OFTEN. *TR

THE HEADREST ANGLE OF MY 2011 FORD EXPEDITION IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE. SHOULD FORD BE REQUIRED TO GIVE OR SELL ME A HEADREST THAT DOES NOT HURT ME? *TT

LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW WOULD NOT GO DOWN AND CAR WAS MAKING A CLICKING NOISE WHEN AC WAS TURNED ON. TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND THEY REPAIRED THE WINDOW AND REPLACED PART THAT WAS MAKING CLICKING NOISE. LESS THAN A MONTH LATER, WE HAD SAME ISSUE WITH FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. HAVE NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED TO GET IT FIXED. WE HAVE BEEN "LIVING" WITH THE FACT THAT WE CANNOT OPERATE THAT WINDOW. HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN I GET IN THE CAR AFTER IT HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A WHILE, IT DOES NOT ALWAYS WANT TO GO INTO REVERSE SMOOTHLY AND THEN WHEN I TRY TO MOVE FORWARD AFTER BACKING OUT, THE CAR LUNGES FORWARD (TRANSMISSION ISSUE?). ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE TO AGREE WITH THE OTHER COMPLAINTS I'VE SEEN ON THIS WEBSITE THAT THE ANGLE OF THE HEADRESTS IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE AND UNSAFE.

STABILITY CONTROL APPLIES BRAKES RANDOMLY IN NORMAL CONDITIONS. PRIMARILY THIS HAS BEEN AT SLOW SPEEDS. BRAKES PULSATE AND VEHICLE IS DIFFICULT TO STEER/CONTROL. ON 12/11/2016 THE STABILITY SYSTEM KICKED IN AT THE SAME TIME THE "RESUME" BUTTON WAS PRESSED FOR THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE FRONT BRAKES APPLIED WITH FORCE AS THE CAR WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO 70 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO FISHTAIL AND THE TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE, BUT THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME HAD TO SWERVE INTO THE MEDIAN TO AVOID HITTING ME FROM BEHIND, AND THE DRIVER IN THE RIGHT LANE WAS FORCED TO BRAKE TO AVOID ME. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING AT APPROXIMATELY 67 MPH ON INTERSTATE 85N IN SOUTH CAROLINA. THIS PROBLEM HAD BEEN REPORTED TO MY FORD DEALER, BUT THEY "COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM" IN SERVICE DEPT.

IN 2014 WE PURCHASED A 2011 FORD EXP. UPON DRIVING IT, WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK WE NOTICED THE VEHICLE WOULD LUNG FORWARD WITH NO PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE ACCELERATOR OR BRAKE. IT APPEARS TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU FIRST START UP THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. *TR

A FUSE THAT HAS THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW, SUNROOF, COMPASS, TV'S AND BACK WINDOW'S CONNECTED TO IT KEEPS GOING OUT. WE REPLACED THE FUSE OURSELVES FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEN IT BLEW AGAIN IN ABOUT 2 WEEKS. THEN I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP THAT IS CLOSER TO OUR HOME TOWN AND THEY REPLACED THE FUSE AGAIN AND SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING THAT IS CAUSING IT TO KEEP BLOWING. ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER IT BLOWS AGAIN. SO I TAKE IT BACK TO THE SAME FORD DEALER AND THEY WERE HESITANT TO TRY TO FIX IT AGAIN. THEY SAID IT COULD POSSIBLY SPARK FIRE IF THEY KEEP CHANGING IT OUT AND THEY WOULD TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT CAME FROM. SO WE REPLACE IT AGAIN AND IT BLOWS 1 WEEK LATER THIS TIME. REMIND YOU THAT WE SPECIAL ORDERED THIS VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY 2011, IT HAS 47,000 MILES ON IT. SO I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED IT. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND CAN'T FIND ANYTHING EITHER. THEY WANT ME TO KEEP MONITORING IT (AS IF I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING THAT ALREADY) TO SEE IF I CAN TELL WHEN IT BLOWS. I TOLD THEM THERE IS NOTHING THAT MY FAMILY OR I AM DOING OTHER THAN DRIVING WHEN IT BLOWS. THEY DON'T THINK IT IS NECESSARY TO TAKE THE CAR APART AND TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I GUESS THEY WANT TO WAIT UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE AND CATCHES FIRE. *TR

2 piece lug nuts swelled creating a dangerous situation where the lugs were extremely difficult to remove. If the vehicle experienced a flat tire, they would be difficult if not impossible to remove on the road.

WHILE DRIVING IN A HEAVY RAIN STORM, THE RUBBER PART OF THE WIPER CAME OFF. THIS CAUSED A HUGE SCRATCH IN THE WINDSHIELD.

VEHICLE NEVER BEFORE IN COLLISION. FRONT BUMPER FULLY CONTACTED WITH SMALLER SUV, SUSTAINING SIGNIFICANT FRONT-END DAMAGE. ONLY PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAG DEPLOYED, DESPITE THERE BEING NO PASSENGER IN SEAT (POCKETBOOK WEIGHING ONLY FEW POUNDS ON THE SEAT, CERTAINLY NOT ENOUGH TO TRIGGER OCCUPANCY SENSORS). MY QUESTION IS TWO-FOLD: WHY DID AIRBAG DEPLOY IN EMPTY PASSENGER SEAT? AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHY DID IT NOT DEPLOY IN OCCUPIED DRIVER SEAT? IS THERE EVER A NON-OFFSET FRONT-END COLLISION WHERE FORCE OF IMPACT REQUIRES ONLY ONE OF TWO AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY? *TR
