2019 FORD EXPEDITION Complaints

Frequent Hard shifting, especially going from 3-4 and 6-7. Frequent Clunking and hard shift while driving around town. While traveling in the interstate at approximately 55-60mph, Multiple times I have encountered accelerating on the freeway and momentarily losing power, feels like it shifted to neutral as I could not accelerate despite hitting the gas. After a few seconds the transmission shifts back and I can accelerate, but it was as if the transmission didn't know what gear to be in and it continues to shift hard before eventually going back to normal.

For months now I have noticed a significant increase in the handling of my car to the point it is erratic and almost hard to drive, I have had my alignment looked at and have also seen that the inside of my rear tires is wearing more than the others as told to me in service reports for my car. A recall was put out for my vehicle which seems to be affected by almost every single recall but it says my car is not affected by this one. Which is The rear suspension toe link fasteners may not have been properly tightened to the frame, possibly allowing separation from the frame and tighten the rear toe link fasteners, check and adjust the rear toe alignment, and inspect the rear tires for abnormal tire wear, replacing them if necessary. I think if anyone else has had similar issues this recall needs to be expanded to other vehicles.

Drain Plug in Moon Roof has been repaired 15 times over 4 years for blockage. The blockage is causing the Floorboard of the passenger side vehicle to become soaked, causing a musty, moldy, mildew smell in the car. I don't park under any trees and car is garaged frequently.

Transmission overheated while going 70-75 mph on the interstate without warning. I Pulled over and saw the thermostat to be overheated to 277 degrees (proof with picture). I along with my husband and 3 young kids Had to be towed 60 + miles back to my house. I was informed by 2 different mechanics the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle had 89k miles on it. I attempted have it checked by a Ford dealership (there are 4 nearby) and all had at least a 12 week waitlist to be diagnosed. During the diagnostic period my vehicle would have to remain on the lot. No dealership would provide a loaner vehicle during that time. Due to financial and work responsibilities, I was unable to do that . We went with a different mechanic to replace with a new transmission (proof with documentation). I am also on the waiting list (10 weeks) to have the cam phasers be diagnosed, this time by the ford dealership. My mechanic I used for the transmission already reported they needed to be changed but I am waiting to see what Ford says . There has been no warning of this happening

The vehicle has harsh shifting, it will skip gears, while driving you will at times hear a grinding noise and the gear drops to 1st and the RPM revs up very high. My safety was put at risk multiple times while driving when the car randomly decides to drop down to first gear. Ford has admitted the problems with the transmissions but will not do anything for the consumer to make it right. My vehicle has been in a ford dealership where they “reset the values” and that has done nothing for it.
