2020 FORD EXPEDITION Complaints

My car loses power over 55 mph. It lost all power on the interstate almost causing a catastrophic accident. When shifting gears it has a very harsh shift. The transmission and shifts are very loud. The transmission has been repaired previously. Now at 4 years old, the transmission has failed and Ford is refusing to cover the cost of repairs.

Our car keeps losing power. Ford has replaced the differential, the transmission twice, and had the car between 4-6 months in the last 18 months. It is now in for its 8th repair. The car loses power while driving. It has done it so many times we have lost count. One of the alerts we get it "electronic limited slip differential reduce torque". Sometimes we can continue driving, sometimes we have to pull over and turn off and on the car. IT started fall/winter of 2022. The car is at ford again.

Already submitted 2 prior complaints regrading Transmission/Engine NHTSA ID 11583360. Vehicle transmission failure. Vehicle is at Ford Dealership for repairs. Safety risk involved risk of accident. Problem has been reproduced and confirmed by Ford service advisor. Vehicle is currently at dealership waiting on repairs to be made. It has been inspected by extended warranty advisors and approved for repair. Vehicle does give any warning when engine/transmission failure occurs. This has been documented since I bought the vehicle in Sept. 2022 with the dealership. This is the 3rd or 4th time it has gone into be checked finally when it happened and dealership was able to reproduce they stated that transmission needs to be rebuilt or new one needs to be installed. Since warranty did not want to cover new transmission they are going to rebuilt it. Before this instance they said it was because transmission failure due to having some sensor reset which did not work.

The evaporator hose was faulty and wasn't connected right. It caused water to settle under the passenger side carpet and mold to grow underneath. Wire wraps along the inside of the door and base floor also have mold. Myself and family breathing in mold spores is a complete health risk. It has been confirmed by a Ford dealership and an insurance representative was contacted who also confirmed. There were not any warnings of this failure. The dealership stated this has been a common problem but has not be recalled for this type of vehicle at this time.

The vehicle has had power issues since day 1. Lost power driving 70 on freeway. When we go to start everything flickers and flashes. Take to the dealer and it’s not a problem until it breaks. 4/5 years of this issue!

I had my 2020 Expedition looked at for transmission issues. Vehicle at times gets stuck and gears do not shift which causes vehicle to lose power both on the HWY and regular streets. I took into dealership on 3/20/24 they said they would have to get transmission module reset as this is a known issue with the expeditions. Well here I am 3 weeks later and vehicle is doing the same thing when I was driving down the street and attempted to switch lanes vehicle would not go into gear and sounded like something was breaking off of it. It has done this 3 times within the last 10 days. Vehicle at dealership now and tech is saying they can not reproduce issue so they can not fix. I told them I have done research on this issue and states that it could be selenoids. This is not something normal that should be happening to a 2020 expedition. Transmission issues were we can get injured from vehicle malfunctioning. I was stuck in the middle of an intersection when vehicle transmission malfunctioned on this occasion. other instance family was on the HWY their is no warning to when this is going to happen and speed is not a factor since it has happened on HWY and street driving.

Vehicle is slipping back into natural when driving. Vehicle losses power and won't move almost causing me to get hit from incoming traffic. It's a known problem with ford and should be responsible for the 7k cost for new transmission.. please investigate this. It's too early for a transmission a fault on a 2020.
