2002 FORD EXPEDITION Complaints

STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP, AND BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS STOP FUNCTIONING WHEN THIS HAPPENS. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

DEALER SAID THE INGNITION SWITCH STICKING BETWEEN START AND RUN WAS THE CAUSE OF MANY PROBLEMS BUT THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LURCHED WHEN AT A STOP. ENGINE RACED AND MUCH PRESSURE WAS REQUIRED ON THE BRAKE TO RESTOP VEHICLE. IF THERE HAD BEEN A STOPPED VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME - I WOULD HAVE STRUCK IT.*AK

PASSENGERS WERE LOCKED IN AND UNABLE TO GET OUT OF VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH DOORS WERE UNLOCKED. CAUSE UNKNOWN DEALER NOTIFIED.*AK

TIRES HAVE BEEN SEPERATING FOR SOME TIME NOW. ORIGINAL TIRES HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED AND ARE ON NATIONWIDE BACKORDER. CONTACTED DEALER REPORTED TO BE ORDERED. HAVE BEEN ON ORDER FOR 3 WEEKS NOW. MY HUSBAND HAS FOUND A DIFFERENT BRAND OF TIRES TO FIT THE VEHICLE BUT THE DEALER AND FORD INSIST ON THE EXACT SAME BRAND AND MAKE OF TIRES. THE BRAND IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. THE RIDE QUALITY ON THE VEHICLE IS BEYOND HORRIBLE, BUT SO FAR NO ACCIDENT HAS OCCURED. WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR HAVING TO PURCHASE MY OWN TIRES FOR A VEHICLE WITH A WARRANTY.*AKY

MOTOR MOUNT BELT SEPARATED FROM VEHICLE ,CAUSING ENGINE TO SPUTTER AND LOSE POWER. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE WILL START TO VIBRATE AT STEERING WHEEL, CAUSING SOME TROUBLE FOR CONSUMER ON CONTROLLING VEHICLE. CONTACTED DEALER, AND THE DEALER WAS AWARE OF PROBLEM, BUT HAD NO REMEDY FOR PROBLEM.*AK

ON FOUR OCCASIONS WHEN APPLYING BRAKES, AND JUST BEFORE STOPPING, ENGINE WOULD SURGE AND SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. VEHICLE BEEN TO DEALER, AND DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

WHILE DRIVING AT 40MPH, THE CONSUMER HAD EXPERIENCED A HEAD-ON COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE, IN WHICH THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *AK ESTIMATED PROPERTY DAMAGE WAS 20000 DOLLARS. THE ACCIDENT CAUSED THE FRONT-END TO COLLAPSE ALL THE WAY TO THE ENGINE BLOCK. *SCC

ONE OF THE FOUR TIRES HAD LOWER PRESSURE MARKINGS AND THE CONSUMER BELIEVES IT WAS POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. (GOODYEAR WRANGLER RT/S P255/70R16). *YH

EXPEDITION BECAME UNCONTROLLABLE ON DRY, FLAT, PAVEMENT. "FISH TAILING" UNTIL GOING IN A DITCH. BRAKES WERE NOT RESPONDING; AND STEERING WAS IRRADICT.*AK
