2017 FORD EXPEDITION Complaints

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Expedition. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the A/C turned off independently. The A/C failed to turn on until the contact inadvertently touched a wire underneath the dashboard. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the blower motor resistor was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that the A/C was stuck on high and would not turn off or turn down. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V648000 (Visibility, Electrical System) and associated the recall with the failure; however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was not contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

At the present I have a vehicle that can not be driven. The low brake fluid alarm and light came. So I stopped purchase some brake fluid and fill the master cylinder up. Not 5 minutes later the alarm goes off and low brake fluid light is on. Now I have no or little brakes. Brake Pedal goes straight to the floor. Too dangerous to drive. My vehicle is now in my drive way after another bottle of brake fluid and slowly driving home. Don't know where the fluid is going Don't see any on the ground. I was told my vehicle vin # was not included in the recall.

At approximately 100,000 miles our park assist camera began to distort, and over the course of several weeks it finally stopped working. This has not caused any issues so far, but could pose a minor safety risk until it's fixed, as reversing in a large SUV like our Expedition EL leaves much to be desired without a park assist camera.

At roughly 95,000 miles the bearings in the rear differential went bad on our Expedition EL. We drove it this way for a few months until we could get it properly diagnosed and repaired. It was repaired by Stearns Ford under our extended warranty (aftermarket) several weeks ago, and has been fine since the rebuild.

Recall on 2017 Ford Expedition - Brake master cylinder. I have had 2 appointments canceled by Ford because they do not have the part in. Am I supposed to wait untill I have an accident because all the brake fluid leaked out. The PIN number on my driver's side door is not working. The driver's door opens after touching one number.

On 8/15/22 I was driving when all of a sudden my brake pedal went all the way to the floor, the braking system dash light chimed and lit up a warning, and the dash read low brake fluid. I pulled over with almost zero brakes, was able to add a bottle of brake fluid. I was able to limp the car home and when I got there again no brake fluid and all warning lights on again. We added another bottle of brake fluid and let the car sit. After an hour we went back and started the car and got the same warnings. We popped the hood and again zero brake fluid, even though we have added 2 bottles. There was nothing visibly leaking. We were able to get the car a mechanic that verified there is a leak in the master cylinder and it needs to be replaced along with the brake booster. The vehicle is available for inspection. There is a recall on this model truck for the same problem but I was told my vehicle was built 10 days past the date allowed in the recall. Having this happen with no warning was extremely dangerous given that I had almost no braking power. It was a challenge moving the car off the road and back home. I had no indication anything was wrong prior to 8/15/22 until the pedal went to the floor that day. Vehicle has only been inspected by my mechanic.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Expedition. The contact stated while accelerating the vehicle from a stop to approximately 30 MPH, the vehicle will shudder. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that when the vehicle was parked it would begin to leak coolant. The contact said that the leaking had increased and was visibly pooling under the vehicle. The contact stated that additionally, the steering had begun to jerk to the left or right with no driver input. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic where it was not diagnosed. The mechanic could not determine where the leak was coming from. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

During routine maintenance the dealer informed me that my vehicle had swollen lug nuts and that all 24 needed to be replaced. This was done on August 10, 2022 at 62340 miles. At least the muffler belt was ok !

While driving, the vehicle suddenly went into a "limp mode" where it lost almost all power and a Power Train warning light came on. This happened once on July 14th and then again 5 times on August 2nd, 2002. The car was not drivable after the consecutive incidents so it had to be towed to the dealership. It was determined the Throttle Body had failed and needed to be replaced and because the car was about 2,500 miles beyond the power train warranty terms the repairs cost $790.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND STARTED TO VIBRATE - THE WRENCH APPEARED IN THE DISPLAY. I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT AND BRING IT TO A COMPLETE STOP. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT AND IT SEEMED TO RUN OKAY. THE NEXT DAY I WAS DRIVING AGAIN AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND THE WRENCH CAME ON IN THE DISPLAY. I TURNED ON TO A SIDE STREET AND TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT - WHILE DRIVING HOME IT DID IT AGAIN AND THE WRENCH CAME ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE. HAD I BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I LOST POWER IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS IF THERE WAS NOT AN EMERGENCY LANE OR OFF RAMP. I SEE OTHER FORD OWNER HAVE REPORTED THIS SIMILAR PROBLEM AND IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE CAUSED BY THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING IT AND WILL HAVE IT TOWED TO MY MECHANIC TO HAVE IT FIXED. AS THIS APPEARS TO BE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM SHOULD IT BE REPAIRED BY FORD?
